QualityLand

This book has a dark, insightful sense of humor and I'm here for it! QualityLand highlights how aspects of our online lives drive our offline lines even when we don't realize it. Algorithms and ads unknowingly shape wants and desires in a way that can change personalities and real life relationships. Sound familiar?

"Machine Breakers" are QualityLand's anti-Utopia crowd who reject Universal Basic Income and investing in everyone's intellectual and physical health. Machine Breakers live in their own echo chamber and anything outside of that is suspect, discouraged, and violently destroyed.

Can algorithms be wrong? Yes. Can we easily update what those algorithms are based on? Not necessarily and that's where Peter Jobless' Sisyphean quest begins. In QualityLand vestigial, irrelevant data from years ago ends up throwing a wrench (in the form of a a little pink dolphin vibrator) in Peter's current life in the funniest and saddest ways.

Without saying much more, if you love movies like Minority Report, Idiocracy, and Don't Look Up, then QualityLand is for you.
