My small win: After months of lobbying, our startup agreed to an external audit for the predictive policing software. Relieved but wary.

Consider how many audits actually fix the core problems. butler.iris has a point about them ignoring transparency issues. I read one case where the audit only checked if the code compiled, not how it targeted neighborhoods. Maybe keep lobbying for something with teeth.

External audits, like Austin's, have successfully addressed algorithmic transparency concerns.
