Whatâs the relationship between statistics and AI and machine learning?
AI seems to be a sort of catchall for predictive modeling and computer modeling. There was this great tweet that said something like, âItâs AI when youâre trying to raise money, ML when youâre trying to hire developers, and statistics when youâre actually doing it.â I thought that was pretty accurate.

Are journalists lowballing the number of Iraqi war dead?
The Columbia Journalism Review investigates the casualty count in Iraq, more than a decade after the U.S. invasion. HRDAG executive director Patrick Ball is quoted. âIBC is very good at covering the bombs that go off in markets,â said Patrick Ball, an analyst at the Human Rights Data Analysis Group who says his whole career is to study âpeople being killed.â But quiet assassinations and military skirmishes away from the capital often receive little or no media attention.

Can âpredictive policingâ prevent crime before it happens?
HRDAG analyst William Isaac is quoted in this article about so-called crime prediction. “They’re not predicting the future. What they’re actually predicting is where the next recorded police observations are going to occur.”
Rise of the racist robots â how AI is learning all our worst impulses
âIf youâre not careful, you risk automating the exact same biases these programs are supposed to eliminate,â says Kristian Lum, the lead statistician at the San Francisco-based, non-profit Human Rights Data Analysis Group (HRDAG). Last year, Lum and a co-author showed that PredPol, a program for police departments that predicts hotspots where future crime might occur, could potentially get stuck in a feedback loop of over-policing majority black and brown neighbourhoods. The program was âlearningâ from previous crime reports. For Samuel Sinyangwe, a justice activist and policy researcher, this kind of approach is âespecially nefariousâ because police can say: âWeâre not being biased, weâre just doing what the math tells us.â And the public perception might be that the algorithms are impartial.

From those cases, the Human Rights Data Analysis Group identified 12,270 cases with sufficient information to confirm the person was killed in detention. Using a statistical method to estimate how many victims they do not yet know about, the group came up with 17,723 cases.
