In this week’s episode, I chat with Nick Diakopoulos from the University of Maryland at College Park. Nick recently co-hosted an event on algorithmic transparency at the Tow Center for Digital Journalism at Columbia University. Nick and I chat about algorithms and the skill sets journalists now need in an era where data is becoming such a big part of the day-to-day job.
