Disintegrating Identity in the Time of Big Data

Mark Zuckerberg states, “You have one identity. The days of you having a different image for your work friends or co-workers and for the other people you know are coming to an end. Having two identities for yourself is an example of a lack of integrity.” This presentation shows why social media and big data platforms tend to create integrated identities. Then, on the ethical level and against Zuckerberg, two real-world strategies for escaping the integration are developed.

Inside the Big Data Experience Machine

What is human experience after the end of privacy? What conveniences and pleasures remain, and what do we need to surrender to receive them? These fundamental questions rise at the intersection of AI, big data, and contemporary humanism, and they are explored from a philosophical ethics perspective within Nozick’s experience machine thought experiment.
