Craig Gent The Autonomy Institute Just read your OD piece re Cyberboss. It's by far the best piece I have read on the politics of algorithmic contol. It's not really about AI, although that's probably a useful hook/starting point. 1/2
What's needed is a political understanding of algorithms and their effects on human workers; openDemocracy on the ball as ever; highly relevant to #InclusiveEconomy thanks for post Tim Christiaens Craig Gent Neil McInroy 1/4
