In Episode 2 of The Invisible AI series, Doctor JR and AI guest Ada pull back the curtain on the consent machinery that powers the algorithmic age. Every time you click ”I Agree,” you may be handing over far more than you think — and when it comes to government algorithms and third-party data brokers, you never got a chance to click anything at all.
In this episode: How ”agreeing” became clicking a button | Third-party data brokers and the AI training ground you never authorized | The government's use of predictive policing, welfare fraud detection, and recidivism scores | The LASER program in Los Angeles | How data brokers like Experian, LexisNexis, and CoreLogic build a version of ”you” without your input | Algorithm of the Week: Proctorio — how a testing app turned your bedroom into a surveillance chamber
