Algorithmic governmentality

Autor: Otávio Morato de Andrade

What are the limits of artificial intelligence’s proliferation in our lives? To what extent do we truly control our own decisions when they unfold under algorithmic influence? How are surveillance capitalism, filter bubbles, and ambient intelligence reshaping contemporary power structures?
Building on the work of influential thinkers like Antoinette Rouvroy and Thomas Berns, this book ventures into the emerging frontiers of algorithmic governmentality.
It investigates how our behaviors are increasingly molded by predictive systems — and critically examines the political ramifications of this phenomenon for democracy.
