Observing Opinions: What About Ethics? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode, Prof. Emese Domahidi from TU Ilmenau explores the ethical questions at the heart of computational social science research. She reflects on the responsibilities that come with using methods such as automated text analysis, machine learning, large-scale data collection, and AI, asking not only what these tools make possible, but also what researchers should do with them. Emese discusses how to approach computational research responsibly, navigate ethical challenges, and critically
