You Must Become an Algorithmic Problem
Renegotiating the Socio-Technical Contract
Book •
This book explores the unspoken agreement we have with tech companies.
In exchange for reducing the anxiety of an increasingly complex online world, we submit to algorithmic classification and predictability.
This reduces incentives for us to become “algorithmic problems” with dire consequences for liberal democracy.
He calls for a movement to demand that algorithms promote play, creativity and potentiality rather than conformity.
