The book explores how organizations utilize data to measure and rank various aspects of our lives, influencing predictions about individual behaviors and traits. It argues that these predictions shape life opportunities, resulting in a superficial morality that disguises entrenched social advantages as merit. Through this lens, it critiques the societal implications of data-driven decision-making and the illusion of fairness it creates.
