Description

Explore how the modern social world is shaped by the connection between human and machine agency. In a landscape filled with mobile devices, sensors, and constant data flow, algorithms have become the primary decision-making force within our software-dense environments. This book examines how these digital codes influence how we are treated, the information we access, the people we connect with, and the things we encounter daily. As algorithms gain influence, they raise significant questions about how our society operates and how we interpret the world around us. This text provides a necessary framework for understanding these technological shifts. It offers various concepts, approaches, and ideas to help readers grasp the relationship between code and social structures. Whether you are studying computing, internet sociology, or data science, this work helps clarify the impact of automated decision-making on human life.
