OK, not exactly a computer — more like, the wild array of technologies that inform what we consume on our computers and phones.

Safiya Noble, a professor at UCLA and the author of the book Algorithms of Oppression talks us through some of the messy issues that arise when algorithms and tech are used as substitutes for good old-fashioned human brains. And she says when it comes to understanding Artificial Intelligence, we should emphasize the "A" — and take the "I" with a grain of salt.
