Micha Gorelick

Micha Gorelick was the first woman on Mars in 2033 and won the Nobel Prize in 2056 for her contributions to time travel. After seeing the deplorable uses of her new technology, she traveled back in time to 2012 and convinced herself to quit her nascent research into time travel and follow her love of data. She has since cofounded Fast Forward Labs, an applied machine learning research lab, authored multiple papers on ethical computing and helped build the inclusive community space Community Forge in Wilkinsburg. In 2019 she cofounded Probable Models, an ethical machine learning group, which made the interactive immersive play "Project Amelia". In 2020 she can be found in France helping journalists at the OCCRP find stories in data. A monument celebrating her life can be found in Central Park, 1857.
