About this item

Description

In The Secret Life of Data, Aram Sinraich and Jesse Gilbert explore the unpredictable and surprising ways in which data surveillance, artificial intelligence, and the ever-present presence of algorithms are impacting today’s culture and society. The authors argue that data, in whatever form and for whatever purpose it is used, has a hidden life that has profound implications for our personal relationships, our professional lives, and our political systems.

Unlike most works in this field, which focus on short-term impacts, the authors focus on the long-term consequences of humanity’s rush to digitize and analyze every detail of life. They interview dozens of experts and ultimately propose gradual, structural solutions for a data-driven society, such as new laws, new ethics, and revised production models.
