In Rewriting the Algorithm: How AI Distorts History and How We Reclaim the Truth, Yaaqov Yisrael explores the growing influence of artificial intelligence on our understanding of history and the consequences of this technological shift. As AI systems become integral to how we access, interpret, and engage with knowledge, they increasingly shape the narratives of the past. Through a critical examination of how AI algorithms are used to rewrite, erase, and distort historical facts, Yisrael uncovers the ways in which biased data and algorithmic decision-making can perpetuate systemic inequalities and erase marginalised voices from history.
This book delves into the power struggle over history itself, showing how those who control AI systems hold the power to shape public perception, political ideologies, and cultural legacies. From the erasure of Black contributions to history to the reinforcement of stereotypes, Yisrael highlights the dangerous potential for AI to serve as a tool of political manipulation and social control. However, Rewriting the Algorithm is not just about exposing these issues—it also provides strategies for reclaiming historical integrity. By reprogramming AI systems, promoting diverse voices in technology, and challenging algorithmic biases, readers can learn how to fight back against the digital distortion of history.
With thought-provoking insights and actionable steps, this book calls on both AI developers and users to take responsibility for the ways in which artificial intelligence impacts the past, present, and future. It is a timely and essential read for anyone concerned with the intersection of technology, history, and social justice.
