About Hilke:

 

Hilke Schellmann is an Emmy award-winning investigative reporter and assistant professor of journalism at New York University.

 

As a contributor to The Wall Street Journal and The Guardian, Schellmann writes about holding artificial intelligence (AI) accountable. In her book, The Algorithm: How AI Decides Who Gets Hired, Monitored, Promoted, and Fired, And Why We Need To Fight Back (Hachette), she investigates the rise of AI in the world of work. Drawing on exclusive information from whistleblowers, internal documents and real‑world tests, Schellmann discovers that many of the algorithms making high‑stakes decisions are biased, racist, and do more harm than good. 

 

Her four-part investigative podcast and print series on AI and hiring for MIT Technology Review were finalists for a Webby Award.
