When AI Gets You Wrong
When Maya’s job application is silently rejected, she isn't given an interview, a contact name, or an explanation. She is left staring at a gap on her résumé where she cared for her aging mother, a life reduced to a single row in a database, deemed a "poor match" by an automated gatekeeper.
In When AI Gets You Wrong, Dr. M. Seenarine delivers a clear-eyed, urgent examination of how automated systems, language models, and predictive algorithms shape the modern human experience. From automated hiring and clinical healthcare predictions to social media polarization and AI companions, artificial intelligence is increasingly used to judge our worth, allocate public resources, and decide who gets access to essential opportunities.
Through compelling real-world cases, rigorous analysis, and human-centered stories, Dr. Seenarine traces the journey of data across four critical stages:
- How the World Becomes Data: Why complex lives, employment gaps, and historical inequalities translate poorly into spreadsheets and web crawls.
- How Data Becomes Judgment: How shortcut learning, biased benchmark tests, instruction authority failures, and "hallucinations" convert incomplete evidence into automated authority.
- When Judgment Reaches You: The real-world consequences on employment, housing, healthcare, credit, and digital safety, and why those with the fewest resources bear the heaviest burden of machine error.
- What Better Would Require: Moving beyond technical "quick fixes" toward true contestability, data governance, and the fundamental right to question the machine.
When AI Gets You Wrong is an indispensable guide for anyone who has ever been categorized, scored, or turned away by a computer, and a vital call to action for building a future where technology serves human needs rather than automating historical injustice.
