[P.O.E.]

We are already slaves to the algorithm in many ways.

Simplest example, your seat belt warning bells.

More complex example, math without an electronic device. No big fan of long division, but I could do calc & trig & geometry, etc. with a pencil and understand the answer, e.g., in physics. Machines can give us the answer, but can not make us understand what it means.

Looming larger is the groupthink from crowd-sourced information.

Wasn't that a Grace Jones song?
