“…From a holistic view of the human person, the greater danger seems to be that human beings believe this and then treat each other as if they were reducible to such data and statistical analyses, profiles, and predictions drawn from them-this is bracketing out the fact that treating human beings in such a way can be both extremely effective and dehumanizing at the same time. Thus, an ethical assessment of the use of DL, for example, in profiling and predicting behavior-which already finds practical application, e.g., in law, insurance, loan giving, and health care (see, e.g., [182,331,[387][388][389][390][391][392][393])-would focus on the insight that such predictions and profiling can never do justice to human beings, their dignity, and freedom as persons and citizens of our societies. This would be an anthropological analysis, backing the ethical objection to the abusive instrumentalization of DL, rather than just an ethical objection that such abuse should not happen.…”
