"In Kafka’s novel The Trial, the protagonist Josef K. is arrested by unidentified agents from an unspecified agency for an unspecified crime. He never finds out what he is accused of, nor when his trial is taking place, but he ultimately accepts his execution.
Machine learning algorithms are similar to the hidden bureaucracy of the The Trial. In many cases they are like a black box, with no human knowing how they came to their predictions or decisions. Suppose your CV is automatically rejected when applying for a job, or you are denied insurance, or you are jailed while awaiting trial."
