Debate over ethics of algorithm use from "summary" of Automate This by Christopher Steiner
The rise of algorithms in decision-making has sparked a heated debate over their ethical implications. As machines become more involved in our daily lives, questions arise about the consequences of relying on algorithms to make important choices. Critics argue that algorithms lack the moral compass that humans possess, leading to potentially harmful outcomes. One of the main concerns is the potential for bias in algorithmic decision-making. Algorithms are designed by humans, who bring their own biases and prejudices into the coding process. This can result in algorithms that perpetuate discrimination against certain groups, whether intentionally or not.
