The Equality Machine Harnessing Digital Technology for a Brighter, More Inclusive Future
Lobel OrlyMuch has been written about the challenges tech presents to equality and democracy. But we can either criticize big data and automation or steer it to do better.
Lobel makes a compelling argument that while we cannot stop technological development, we can direct its course according to our most fundamental values.
With provocative insights in every chapter, Lobel masterfully shows that digital technology frequently has a comparative advantage over humans in detecting discrimination, correcting historical exclusions, subverting long-standing stereotypes, and addressing the world's thorniest problems: climate, poverty, injustice, literacy, accessibility, speech, health, and safety.
Lobel's vivid examples-from labor markets to dating markets-provide powerful evidence for how we can harness technology for good. The book's incisive analysis and masterful storytelling will change the debate about technology and restore human agency over our values.
