Ladies, Gents, as someone who has some background in statistics (but none in ‘digital humanities’, admittedly), I strongly recommend to worry about people who tell you that any form of tech, especially based on statistics, is going to solve the problem of humans acting un-ethical or immoral.
While I’m at it, I would recommend to worry about anybody who prefers technical solutions above societal solutions for anything.
