We all know people who work in those companies, and they still are pretty convincing that their mission is to — so, the alternative narrative is that there have been unintended consequences here, that the technologies that we're unleashing, the algorithms, that we're attempting to personalize the internet, for example, have A, resulted in weird effects like filter bubbles that we weren't expecting; and B, made themselves vulnerable to weird things like — oh, I don't know, Russian hackers creating accounts and doing things that we didn't expect. Isn't the unintended consequence a possibility here?
Todos conocemos a personas que trabajan en esas empresas, y todavía son bastante convincentes de cuál es su misión: Y la narrativa alternativa es que ha habido consecuencias no deseadas, que las tecnologías que estamos desencadenando, los algoritmos que intentamos personalizar en Internet, por ejemplo, resultaron en efectos extraños, como los filtros burbuja que no esperábamos; y se hicieron vulnerables a cosas raras como hackers rusos que crean cuentas y hacen cosas que no esperábamos. ¿No es posible aquí la consecuencia involuntaria?
