Overview

¿Quién gana (realmente) algo cada vez que entramos en internet?

¿Dejarías tu vida en manos de un algoritmo? Todos lo hemos hecho ya. A ciegas, sin querer. Si nos lo hubieran preguntado antes, si nos hubieran advertido en la letra grande de los riesgos y las repercusiones de delegar decisiones en la inteligencia artificial, quizá habríamos resuelto otra cosa. Somos, en cierto modo, marionetas del algoritmo, aunque no necesariamente de la manera que imaginamos. Pero quienes manejan los hilos no están hechos de silicio, sino de carne y hueso.

Este libro, fruto de años de investigación de la periodista científica Laura G. De Rivera, profundiza en distintas consecuencias de la penetración masiva de los algoritmos en nuestro día a día y responde a alguna de las preguntas más importantes de nuestro tiempo: ¿Sabemos cuánto contaminan? ¿De dónde viene la mano de obra (semiesclava) que los entrena? ¿Queda todavía algún lugar virgen en lo más recóndito de nuestra intimidad? ¿Por qué el modelo de negocio de las grandes plataformas se basa en fomentar la enfermedad mental? ¿Por qué la IA jamás podrá ser neutral? ¿Cuál es el peligro de dejar que haga predicciones por su cuenta? ¿Si algo no aparece en los resultados de la búsqueda de Google es que no existe?¿Qué es verdad y qué es mentira?

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Who (really) wins every time we go online?

Would you trust your life to an algorithm? We’ve all done it already. Blindly, without knowing it. If we were asked in advance, if we were warned in bold letters of the risks and repercussions of delegating decisions to artificial intelligence, then maybe we’d have opted for something else. We are all, to a certain extent, the puppets of algorithms, although not necessarily in the ways we imagine. And the strings are held not by robots, but by human beings.

This book, the product of years of research by science journalist Laura G. De Rivera, explores the consequences of the inroads made by algorithms into our daily lives and answers some of the most pressing questions of our times: How far do algorithms reach? Who are the (semi-enslaved) workers who train them? Is there an aspect of our private lives they still haven’t touched? Why do large platforms base their business models on fostering mental illness? Why can’t AI ever be neutral? What is the danger of letting it make predictions? If something doesn’t appear in our Google search results, does that mean it doesn’t exist? How can we tell what’s true and what’s a lie?
