Algorithms are not magic. They are neither good nor evil, but they also aren't neutral. They are just math recipes written by regular ol' dumb human beings, and so they don't absolve us of our responsibilities as human beings. If anything, they amplify them. If you make a bad batch of enchiladas, that's really just a problem for you. If you program a computer to make unlimited batches of bad enchiladas, well now you are assaulting the entire world—the whole enchilada, as it were.
