Algorithms Aren’t Killing Creative Culture

I'm always surprised by the fact that the antagonism between human and machines, creativity and routines are maintained in the mind of the public. All of these articles conclude somehow with some platitudes like "machines are nothing but the result on human creativity and sophisticated algorithms are nothing but the best expression of it...".

In my view, it would be a significant contribution to find a way to drive the public to understand that an algorithm have “a meaning”. It predicts what people should like or buy just because someone have determined the features that should be taken into account (even if you put statistical learning to determine these features and you don’t decide manually). “Algorithms have meanings”… Maybe someone talented should write about that!
