Description
The Algorithm: How AI Can Hijack Your Career and Steal Your Future Hilke Schellmann's exposé reveals the secret rise of AI in the world of work, where algorithms are making high-stakes decisions about who gets hired, fired, and promoted. Through whistleblower accounts, leaked internal documents, and real-world practices, Schellmann sheds light on the troubling pseudoscientific ideas driving these calculations. From facial expression analysis and social media profiling to video games assessing performance and workplace monitoring, Schellmann exposes the alarming truths behind AI-driven recruitment and employee management. As job insecurity worsens, Schellmann argues that we must fight back against the dominance of algorithms in the workplace. With a mix of investigative journalism and expert insights, The Algorithm offers a fascinating and thought-provoking exploration of the impact of AI on our careers and futures.
