Great job everyone! Love that @caasipitt's very own #ACPP pm Emmaline Rial, MPA '24, contributed to the #hatespeech meta analysis. This very same team also works on #legal #analytics of #police contracts for #ACPP
So great seeing students present their work! Dan Rudy, MPA '24, & Myles Cramer, MPA '24, attended the 2023 Tech Ethics Symposium hosted by @duqedu. They presented, Meta-Analysis of Hate Speech Dataset Annotators, which was 1 of only 7 graduate student posters accepted.
