Epistemology of algorithms according to systems theory  The present contribution aims at questioning the reasons why the level reached by the processes of digitization of information stimulates interpreters to hypothesize that...

ARTICOLI / 1 / Massimiliano Badino / Algorithms are everywhere: they watch us, they give us advice, sometimes they take autonomous decisions. They are agents mediating between reality and us by virtue of their capability to treat huge amounts of data...
