Killer Big Data: How Mathematics Became a Weapon of Mass Destruction

Mathematical algorithms are increasingly dominating our lives every day. Moreover, according to the author of this book, a mathematics professor and financial analyst, these algorithms have already become a dangerous weapon in the hands of the state and corporations - and this weapon is aimed primarily at the poorest and most vulnerable segments of the population. At the same time, the hidden principles of mathematical models are protected as the greatest trade secret, and their verdicts, sometimes obviously erroneous and obviously harmful, are considered final and cannot be appealed.
Welcome to a wonderful new world - the world of killer Big Data.
