Workshop 4: Conducting DSA risk assessments - algorithms in the spotlight!

While the other sessions of the conference will look more closely at each of the societal risks and how they materialise through online platforms, this session will focus specifically on the methodologies, sources of information, and concrete steps platforms could take to conduct diligent and robust risk assessments.

In particular, platforms should assess risks stemming from their algorithmic systems, such as their recommender systems, content moderation or advertising systems. The workshop will highlight the particularities of algorithmic risk assessments, from their socio-technical implications, to specificities of generative models and other technological choices.
