anyone interested in things that happen and why. Its called "Weapons of Math Destruction", about how math models and algorithms that are increasingly used today for nearly everyone are often misleading, poorly designed, secret and even unfair in many ways.
They are used to decide your credit score, if you get a loan or not, whether a teacher should be fired if the students don't get good enough grades, they facilitate finanacial market deception and impact people, often negatively, in dozens of ways they typically are totally unaware of.
I'm here to help.
