Code Dependent: Living in the Shadow of AI by Madhumita Murgia

challenging

5.0

Such a fantastic look into the human costs of AI. From data labellers being paid above the living wage for their area and still exploited when you consider the vast amounts of money companies are making on their labour; to rideshare drivers who are having algorithms routinely underpay them for the distance and time they have worked. 

The book is diverse in its discussion and keeps you really engaged as it helps refocus the narrative from the technology to the people building it, using it and suffering because of it.
