{"product_id":"revolutionary-mathematics-artificial-intelligence-statistics-and-the-logic-of-capitalism","title":"Revolutionary Mathematics : Artificial Intelligence, Statistics and the Logic of Capitalism","description":"\u003cp\u003eOur finances, politics, media, opportunities, information, shopping and knowledge production are mediated through algorithms and their statistical approaches to knowledge; increasingly, these methods form the organizational backbone of contemporary capitalism. Revolutionary Mathematics traces the revolution in statistics and probability that has quietly underwritten the explosion of machine learning, big data and predictive algorithms that now decide many aspects of our lives. Exploring shifts in the philosophical understanding of probability in the late twentieth century, Joque shows how this was not merely a technical change but a wholesale philosophical transformation in the production of knowledge and the extraction of value.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e This book provides a new and unique perspective on the dangers of allowing artificial intelligence and big data to manage society. It is essential reading for those who want to understand the underlying ideological and philosophical changes that have fueled the rise of algorithms and convinced so many to blindly trust their outputs, reshaping our current political and economic situation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eFormat: paperback\u003cbr\u003e Published: UK, 2022\u003cbr\u003e Publisher: Verso\u003cbr\u003e Pages: 240\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eLanguage: English\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eISBN 13: \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e9781788734004\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ISBN 10:1788734009\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Justin Joque","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43564603867402,"sku":"","price":21.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0282\/6066\/3399\/products\/9781788734004.jpg?v=1654936632","url":"https:\/\/www.shakespeareandsons.com\/products\/revolutionary-mathematics-artificial-intelligence-statistics-and-the-logic-of-capitalism","provider":"Shakespeare \u0026 Sons Buchhandel GmbH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
