If machine learning transforms the nature of knowledge, does it also transform the practice of critical thought?Machine learning--programming computers to learn from data--has spread across scientific disciplines, media, entertainment, and government. Machine learning devices (sometimes understood as scientific models, sometimes as operational algorithms) anchor the field of data science. Medical research, autonomous vehicles, credit transaction processing, computer gaming, recommendation systems, finance, surveillance, and robotics use machine learning.
In contexts from the everyday to the esoteric, machine learning is said to transform the nature of knowledge. They have also become mundane mechanisms deeply embedded in a variety of systems and gadgets. In this book, Adrian Mackenzie investigates whether machine learning also transforms the practice of critical
