How Big Data and machine learning encode discrimination and create agitated clusters of comforting rage.In Discriminating Data, Wendy Hui Kyong Chun reveals how polarization is a goal--not an error--within Big Data and machine learning. Correlation, which grounds Big Data's predictive potential, stems from twentieth-century eugenic attempts to "breed" a better future. These methods, she argues, encode segregation, eugenics, and identity politics through their default assumptions and conditions.
Users are "trained" to become authentically predictable via a politics and technology of recognition. Recommender systems foster angry clusters of sameness through homophily. Machine learning and data analytics thus seek to disrupt the future by making disruption impossible.Chun, who has a background in systems design engineering as well as media studies and cultural theory,
