Algorules are, in short, ethical design criteria for algorithmic systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Background<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Algorithmic systems are being used in more and more areas of our everyday lives and therefore have a considerable influence on our daily lives. They sometimes make decisions that can have far-reaching consequences for individuals and society as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What are the Algo.Rules?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Algo. rules are a catalogue of nine rules that should be observed in order to enable and facilitate a socially beneficial design and the corresponding use of algorithmic systems. These rules should already be observed during the development of the systems and implemented \"by design\". The target group of the Algo.Rules is therefore all persons who have a significant influence on the development and use of algorithmic systems. Developers, programmers and designers have a special role to play here. The Algo.rules are therefore intended to help design algorithmic systems according to ethical standards. They were developed in an open, participatory and interdisciplinary process with over 400 participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The workshop<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The key question addressed in the workshop was how the Algo.rules can be integrated into the context in which developers work and how they can be technically concretised and implemented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In small groups, the participants worked on various questions, such as<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>With regard to relevance<\/strong>: which of the algo.rules are relevant for developers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>With regard to concretisation:<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>How can the algo.rules be integrated into the context of developers' actions and implemented technically?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What do the Algo.Rules mean in practice?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How can individual aspects of the algo.rules, such as accountability or traceability, be solved technically?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>With regard to implementation:<\/strong>&nbsp;How could the Algo.Rules be implemented for female developers? What framework conditions must be fulfilled so that female developers can implement the Algo.Rules?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The result: a practical guide&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The result of the workshop can be found in a recently published practical guide. The guide is intended to support developers, programmers, designers and their superiors in implementing the Algo.Rules in their daily work practice<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The practical guide to the Algo.Rules -&nbsp;<em>Guidance for developers and their managers<\/em>&nbsp;can be downloaded here free of charge<strong>:&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bertelsmann-stiftung.de\/de\/publikationen\/publikation\/did\/praxisleitfaden-zu-den-algorules-all-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bertelsmann-stiftung.de\/de\/publikationen\/publikation\/did\/praxisleitfaden-zu-den-algorules-all-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.bertelsmann-stiftung.de\/de\/publikationen\/publikation\/did\/praxisleitfaden-zu-den-algorules-all-1<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We were very happy to be part of the workshop!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>Participants<\/strong>&nbsp;(alphabetical order): Ursula Garczarek, J\u00fcrgen Geuter, Irina Hardt, Marc Hauer, Johannes Hofmann, Stefanie Kegel, Ellen K\u00f6nig, Ramak Molavi, Thomas Otto, Nadiem Sissouno, Tobias Sterbak, Detlef Steuer.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Illustration \/Cover picture\u00a0<br><a href=\"https:\/\/storyset.com\/technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Technology illustrations by Storyset<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/birdux.studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/algorules-wedding-teilnahme.jpg\" alt=\"The participants of the AlgoRules workshop\" class=\"wp-image-15715\" title=\"algorules-wedding-participation\" srcset=\"https:\/\/birdux.studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/algorules-wedding-teilnahme.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/birdux.studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/algorules-wedding-teilnahme-1280x960.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/birdux.studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/algorules-wedding-teilnahme-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/birdux.studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/algorules-wedding-teilnahme-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1600px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Photo: iRights Lab - one-day workshop for developers<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Im Mai letzten Jahres wurden wir zu einem Expert*innen Workshop des iRight Labs und der Algoethik, einem Projekt der Bertelsmann Stiftung&nbsp; zum Thema \u201cAlgo.Rules\u201d eingeladen.
