#Entrapta isn’t welcomed with open arms by the princesses, & she struggles w/ making friends. I noted exactly this in three posts I made about her in November 2019, May 2020, and August 2020. Here's the first of those posts: histhermann.wordpress.com/2019/11/14/a... #autism #dataism #fanfics (114/?)
@hbr.org had been warning about the false belief of #dataism in #business, and that certainly applies to government too.
Individuals used to be able to make reasoned decisions and be held accountable based on reasons, not just metrics. That was the Enlightenment legacy

“A good idea without #marketing is like winking at a girl in the dark”
—William Randolph Hearst III, heir to the Hearst Newspapers dynasty, shares a #business tip from his father. “How do you know what people want until you show it to them?”

And while we’re at it, #dataism from the wrong KPIs was already leading people astray before AI came on the scene. It’s a double hallucination.
No wonder some unfortunate souls can end up with “AI psychosis.” Time for a reality check

Stumbled across this article from August that talks about the nature of reality itself, and how #dataism (HBR’s word for it) is creating an illusory effect blocking good decision-making in #business
The machine learning in #AI is built on reducing error rates, not synthesizing new things

My latest post explores how the mechanistic faith in data, Agile’s 'velocity', pandemic charts, and the cult of evidence, reveals the ontology of modern obedience. The Seduction of the Spreadsheet👉 philosophics.blog/2025/10/26/t...

Part of the insanity may be what HBR called “the false belief” of #dataism: reacting to minor fluctuations in numbers, executives may be skipping over articulating exactly why they are changing course, or what success looks like to others. It’s just in their heads

Dataism, the belief in knowledge as a guiding force, challenges traditional epistemologies by prioritizing information flow over individual agency. This concept shapes modern debates about AI, big data, and the ethics of knowledge systems. (Q31273854) #Dataism #Epistemology #AIethics
#dataism applies to ethical and moral questions too, in and out of the office
