It examines how algorithms have evolved from simple tools of convenience to essential parts of how both public and private sectors operate. Tracing their historical roots, the chapter highlights algorithms' role in shaping regulatory frameworks and discusses their societal implications, particularly around transparency, accountability, and potential biases.
