In Weapons of Math Destruction, data scientist Cathy O’Neil exposes the black box models that shape our future, both as individuals and as a society. They score teachers and students, sort resumes, grant (or deny) loans, evaluate workers, target voters, set parole, and monitor our health. But they are also opaque, unregulated, and uncontestable, even when they’re wrong. Most troubling, they reinforce discrimination: Models are propping up the lucky and punishing the downtrodden, creating a toxic cocktail for democracy. This important book empowers us to ask the tough questions, uncover the truth about the dark side of Big Data, and demand change.
