Is the "algorithm" actually the one in control, or is it just the ultimate excuse?

In this provocative deep dive, we break down the dangerous trend of "algorithmic scapegoating." As we move further into 2026, it is becoming easier than ever for corporations and individuals to blame a "glitch in the system" for human-driven ethical failures. From biased hiring to predatory lending, we explore why "the math made me do it" is no longer a valid defense.

In this episode, we cover:

• The Hand Holding the Gun: Why the focus of AI ethics is shifting away from the technology itself and back to the humans behind it.

• The Illusion of Neutrality: Why data is never truly "neutral" and how human bias is baked into the foundation of our systems.

• Corporate Accountability: How the "black box" excuse is being used to dodge legal and social responsibility for real-world harms.

• Human-in-the-Loop: Why true accountability requires a person to be answerable for every automated outcome.

Before you blame the AI for the next system failure, ask yourself: Who actually built it? Tune in to find out why the era of the perfect scapegoat is coming to an end.

🎧 Listen now to reclaim human accountability in an automated world.
