The Case For and Against the Most Powerful Technology on Earth - Told as a Trial

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

You are the jury. Fourteen real cases are the evidence.

A warehouse worker fired by an algorithm that never explained itself. A grieving family who spoke to a chatbot wearing the voice of someone they lost. A driverless car that made a decision no one can fully account for. A flood-warning system credited with saving lives an ocean away from the people who built it.

THE VERDICT MACHINE puts fourteen real, documented cases on trial - each one a moment where artificial intelligence made, or unmade, a human life. Each chapter opens with the scene as it happened, lays out the case for the technology and the case against it, and then leaves the verdict to you. No easy answers. No invented villains. Just the evidence, the arguments, and the growing realization that the pattern was never really about the machine - it was about who held the gavel.

Written as narrative nonfiction with the pacing of a courtroom drama, THE VERDICT MACHINE is for anyone who has wondered what AI is actually doing to the people caught inside its decisions - and who should be held accountable when it gets those decisions wrong.

Fourteen real cases. Fourteen verdicts. All of them yours.
