Snoozer. Maybe a mathematician would like it. I stuck with it hoping I‘d get something out of it.😫The author rambles without solid facts, contradicts herself, and mislabels issues as big data. It feels more like bandwagon rhetoric than real analysis.

Fascinating, informative, and a bit scary.

When all the library holds come in at once.

This is a mix of #Roll100 titles and books I requested to help me figure out my relationship with social media (except Litsy. I know exactly how I feel about Litsy ❤️).

BarbaraBB Glad you won‘t reconsider Litsy! 4w

“We have to ask what is lost, who is harmed, and what should be forgotten with the embrace of artificial intelligence in decision making. It is of no collective social benefit to organize information resources on the web through processes that solidify inequality and marginalization - on that point I am hopeful many people will agree.”

This is an interesting look at data science and how it can be used and misused, based on your perspective. Fascinating. But not entirely surprising.

This probably isn‘t a fair rating, it is well written and researched, but I started skimming because I knew most of the information & reliving it made me want to delete all my social media accounts and throw my smartphone into the sea.

Awesome intro to how data models can inadvertently (or advertently) screw individuals and society over. Was going to be a great prelude to a data training but then the rona hit.

This was a fascinating read. Lots of research, insight into famous cases and less loud ones. I thought I was pretty well informed, but there is so much underneath it all. “Algorithm has no moral compass”.
But ultimately it‘s a story of tremendous greed. And we are living it. This is a must read

Can I count this as horror because the content is pretty scary? 😱
