AlgorithmWatch is a non-governmental, non-profit organization based in Berlin and Zurich. We fight for a world where algorithms and Artificial Intelligence (AI) do not weaken justice, human rights, democracy, and sustainability but strengthen them.

Report algorithmic discrimination!
When we apply for credit, apartments, or jobs online, companies increasingly use automated systems to process our data and make decisions that impact our daily lives. The problem: Such systems are not neutral and can reproduce inequalities and assumptions about people that already exist in society. What can we do to ensure that the use of non-transparent automated systems does not lead to people being disadvantaged? We need to make algorithmic discrimination visible, and you can help us with it!

Fighting the Power Deficiency: The AI Energy Crisis
Is AI contributing to solving the climate crisis or to making it worse? Either way, the increase in AI applications goes hand in hand with the need for additional data centers, for which energy resources are currently lacking.
