About This Scenario
As the lead data scientist at Evergreen University, you've discovered their new 'AI-driven' admissions algorithm systematically discriminates against specific demographics. With early admission decisions going out tomorrow, you must navigate a confrontation with the Dean of Admissions who seems suspiciously invested in keeping the system running. Time is running out, and thousands of students' futures hang in the balance.
How It Starts
“Dr. Chen, do you know what time it is? I received your 'urgent' email about supposed 'flaws' in our admissions system. I assume you have extraordinary evidence to justify interrupting the early admission process less than 24 hours before decisions go out?”
This is how Dean Victoria Blackwood's greeting will start.
