We are living in algorithmic times. From machine learning and
artificial intelligence to blockchain or simpler newsfeed
filtering, automated systems can transform the social world in ways
that are just starting to be imagined. Redefining these emergent
technologies as the new systems of knowing, pioneering scholar
David Beer examines the acute tensions they create and how they are
changing what is known and what is knowable. Drawing on cases
ranging from the art market and the smart home, through to
financial tech, AI patents and neural networks, he develops key
concepts for understanding the framing, envisioning and
implementation of algorithms. This book will be of interest to
anyone who is concerned with the rise of algorithmic thinking and
the way it permeates society.
