Big Data: A Revolution That Will Transform How We Live, Work, and Think
Book • 2013
In this book, Mayer-Schönberger and Cukier argue that the ability to process vast amounts of data is revolutionizing how we live, work, and think.
They outline three key shifts: the availability of significantly more data, the move from sampling to surveying entire populations, and a shift from understanding causation to focusing on correlation.
The authors discuss how these changes impact various fields, including business, privacy, and the labor market, and highlight the importance of data collectors and interpreters in the future[2][4][3].
