Exactly this - inexact and biased algorithms

How our everyday lives are being inaccurately and potentially morally irresponsibly influenced by the use of algorithms.
Yes. Yes. Yes.
I have the similar opinions, but I wonder and want to investigate:

1.  the use of the data that's not being used because it's an outlier
2. We are digging trenches of data-driven opinions and recommendations that are only supporting further digging, not the analysis or understanding of incorporating a wider array of data to get the relational information, expanding and more complex information, etc.
