We use a paradigm in which participants rated Uber drivers or Airbnb hosts. P's then evaluated their, an algorithm's, or other people's ratings for biases due to race, age, gender, and attractiveness. In most experiments, we surreptitiously showed them their own ratings in all…

Can the bias in algorithms help us see our own? Recent research from Questrom School of Business, Boston University's Carey Morewedge reveals that individuals are more apt to acknowledge their biases in algorithms' decisions compared to their own, even when the decisions align.
