I liked my talk about citizens' assemblies so much that it took me three years to switch to a different topic. But the last iteration — an ECAI'23 keynote, which I consider to be the definitive version — is now online, courtesy of the PC chair Kobi Gal's AI & DS Lab.

I assign it 'every' term for class discussion; super glad to see it being recognized. A must read if interested in algorithmic fairness!

Excellent piece by Ariel Procaccia explaining sortition - the philosophical premise of it, as well as how the Ancient Greeks’ Kleroterian worked, and the very sophisticated modern day version (effectively, algorithms) work. With great visuals. scientificamerican.com/article/citize… #delibwave

This well-researched The New York Times op-ed by Thomas Edsall about belief polarization paints a pessimistic picture. Among many other papers, Edsall discusses our 2021 PNAS paper with Nika Haghtalab and Matthew Jackson, which takes a learning-theoretic approach.
