The big consequences of big data

Big data is becoming increasingly more prevalent and contentious in contemporary society - almost anybody can access mass analytics and information data about almost anything put on the internet (if they know where to look). A panel event tomorrow night at AUT is taking a critical look at this phenomenon, intending to discuss the impacts that big data can have on policy making and businesses in the coming years. Producer Will spoke to panel host Rod Oram ahead of tomorrow night.

‘I Know What You Did Last Summer: Risks/Opportunities of Big Data’ takes place at 5:30pm on the 3rd of August at AUT’s Sir Paul Reeves Building. Admission is free.
