Big Data
A Revolution That Will Transform How We Live, Work, and Think
Book • 2013
In this book, Mayer-Schönberger and Cukier discuss the revolution brought about by the ability to process vast amounts of data.
They argue that this shift allows us to move from understanding causation to analyzing correlations, enabling new insights and applications.
The authors explain how big data changes the way we approach problems, accepting messiness in data and focusing on predictive analytics rather than exact causality.
They also address the implications of big data on privacy, decision-making, and various aspects of society.
