Jenn "JR"’s Reviews > Algorithmic Culture Before the Internet > Status Update

culture was defined by people in the past with specific values they intended to promulgate - allowing algorithms to promote or drive selection of cultural artifacts creates a huge risk, both in errors in the algorithm itself, controls over those filters (ie AmazonFail) - or even conditioning, people to believe or except the superiority of the algorithms selections, priming them for fascism

Algorithms as the modification of culture, changing the meaning of “culture” to something that can be measured and identified through computation and variables.
