About the Book
In The Equality Machine, Orly Lobel presents a compelling argument on how digital technology can be used to promote equality and fairness, rather than being seen solely as a threat to democracy. With insights across various sectors, Lobel demonstrates that while we cannot halt the progress of technology, we can guide its evolution to align with our core values.
Lobel explores how technology—especially big data and automation—can be harnessed to detect and address issues of discrimination, correct historical exclusions, challenge stereotypes, and tackle some of the world's most urgent problems, including climate change, poverty, and injustice. Through vivid examples from diverse fields such as labor and dating markets, she illustrates how technology can work in harmony with human values to create a more just society.
This book shifts the conversation around technology, restoring human agency and showing how we can steer technological advancements to serve equality and social good.
