,Week 1
Trends in healthcare

- Datafication
o Health into data  sleep, steps
- Digitization
o For computational analyses
- Computational abilities (ML/AI)
o Enhanced models the last years  to analyze the data

- High expectations but also many concerns
o Legal
o Ethical
o Societal  how does society change  positive/negative
o Professional  medical professionals  how does AI change professional routines
and how they work

Data Driven Dreams

- Societal expectations  dreams  what will they enable us to do
- Also focus on socio-technical perspective  how do technology shape societal expectations
and discussion and the other way around
- Interplay between:
o Technology
 Maximizing computation power and algorithmic accuracy to gather, analyze,
link, and compare large data sets
o Analysis
 Drawing on large data sets to identify patterns in order to make economic,
social, technical, and legal claims
o Mythology
 The widespread belief that large data sets offer a higher form of intelligence
and knowledge that can generate insight that were previously impossible, with
the aura of truth, objectivity, and accuracy

Algorithmic walk
Algorithm

- What is an algorithm?
o Can be thought of as the basic steps in Big Data as they are the a basis of machine
learning
o Technical:
 A set of instructions for solving a problem step-by-step, typically execute by a
computer
 Cookbook for example
o Socio-technical:
 Powerful (often obscure) entities that somehow govern, shape and control
infrastructures, practices and our daily lives
 Personalized suggestions on Netflix, YouTube or news for example 
can create polarization on ideas when only seeing certain information
 filter bubbles, not seeing other information

, - What does an algorithm look like
- How can we use an algorithm

Reflect on algorithmic reasoning

- Navigator: determines the route
- Referee: makes sure that the rules are followed correctly
- The photographer: takes photos of critical or illustrative situations
- Map maker: draws a map of the groups path
- Not taker: takes notes of critical situations
- Collector: identifies/collects objects that illustrate

Literature week 1
Schonberger & Cukier (2014) – Big Data: a revolution
What are the possibilities of Big Data according to the authors?

- Data will help us make sense of our world in ways we are just starting to appreciate
o Decoding human genome
o Trading on markets by computer algorithms
- Increase the scale of data, we can do new things that weren’t possible when we worked with
smaller amounts
o Solution to global problems  climate change, economic development and good
governance
- Many aspects of the world will be augmented or replaced by computer systems that today are
the sole purview of human judgement
o Big data is predictions  applying math  what is the chance  increasing the
amount of data, the more accurate the prediction
- Source of new economic value and innovation, and the way we analyze information that
transform how we understand and organize society
o Using all data lets us details we could never see with smaller (samples) quantities. Big
data gives us an especially clear view of the granular: subcategories and submarkets
that samples can’t assess
- Datafication  transforming information about anything and turn it into data to make it
quantified  allows predictive analysis and unlocks implicit, latent value of the information
- Specific area expertise matters less  force an adjustment to traditional ideas of
management, decision-making, human resources and education

What are (new) characteristics of Big Data mentioned in the chapter?

- The new quantity of information that surrounds us and how fast it grows  1200 exabytes, of
which 2% non-digital
- It is more digital than analog  7% of data in 2007 was analog (paper, books, photos etc) 
2000 25% was digital
- By changing the amount, the essence is changed  a photo  capturing 24 frames per
second  quantitative change produced a qualitative change  increase the scale of data,
we can do new things that weren’t possible when we worked with smaller amounts
- Big data  about predictions
- Improved efficiency, information collection and analysis one took years, now in days or less

What are downsides of Big Data according to the authors?

- We rely on it daily

, o Autocorrect, dating sites, spam filter etc.  will become more with cars automatically
braking
- Undermine privacy  algorithms predict individual likelihoods of heart attack or commit a
crime, and adjust health insurance or deny loans  ethical consideration

Does this chapter fit better with the technical or socio-technical approach?

- Socio-technical, because the chapter talks about how technology will shape our social lives

Vincent (2014) – Politics of buzzwords at the interface of technoscience
What does the author mean with her description of buzzwords as 'linguistic technologies'?

- Stereotyped phrases
- Buzzwords  omnipresent and used ad libitum (used as often as necessary or desired)

The author describes three main performances in how buzzwords shape techno-scientific
developments. What are these three performances? Can you think of examples?

- Buzzwords as linguistic technologies  more than just empty, meaningless terms used for
marketing and communication purposes  like signposts, pointing to a direction and inviting
us to move in this direction. As such, they can be analyzed as powerful linguistic technologies:
o Generate matters of concern and play an important role in trying to build consensus
 (Re)shaping practices
 Guide research and innovation, and public use of technology.
 Create concern  metaphors: ‘green technology’  suggests possible
alliance between nature (the color green) and technology.
o Set attractive goals and agendas
 Attract people  point to a goal
 Ideal goal (out of reach)  ‘zero emission’  inspire guidelines for action
 Provide direction  help actors of innovation make sense of their action in a
global historical context of innovation.
o Create unstable collectives through noise
 Create a movement, a mainstream, it is not because of their meanings: they
just make noise  creating agitation.
 Instead of transmitting a signal detached from noise they seek to transmit a
signal by increasing noise.
 Ambiguities and various actors retain their language  come together and
rely on misunderstandings to achieve something
 Buzzwords are alive as long as they manage to gather people around a
matter of concern.

How could you describe Big Data as a buzzword based on this analysis? Can you think of examples of
how Big Data as a buzzword shapes techno-scientific developments?

- Big data has the power of prediction  these prediction can generate concern, set attractive
goals and agendas and could create a movement

Dalton & Thatcher (2014) – Critical data studies. Society and space
What is Big Data according to the authors?

- Data that is dominant in our lives, but it is receding into the banality of the every-day

Why is a critical approach needed and what should it study?
