SUMMARY:Ethics for the working mathematician\, seminar 7: The impartiality
  of mathematics. - Maurice Chiodo (University of Cambridge)
DTSTART:20180201T170000Z

CONTACT:Maurice Chiodo
DESCRIPTION:We hold mathematics in very high regard\, as the beacon of abs
 olute truth. Mathematics does not have any intrinsic prejudice or bias\; i
 t reveals truth. But how do we infer meaning from truth? Mathematicians de
 sign systems to remove human subjectivity from decision making processes\,
  to make them more impartial. Does this mean that that we've removed all s
 ubjectivity from the process? We must realise the strengths\, and weakness
 es\, of the systems we design.
