Algorithmic Government: How NYC Uses Data for Good
summary
New York City opens 1,600 datasets and runs NYCx innovation challenges that fund pilots — a German company wins a smart street EV charging prototype, city fleet EVs remain below 3%, and a Governors Island mesh-wireless test explores low-cost broadband to hit “fast affordable Internet by 2025.” The city convenes the nation’s first Automated Decisions Task Force to set rules for algorithms with guiding principles: explainable, fair and equitable systems, plus questions on appeals, legal limits and bias mitigation.
