The problem of algorithms is, I think, also the question of the framework by which we determine the validity of our knowledge. The frames built with the help of algorithms are strong, unambiguous and legible. This causes that algorithmic sciences are called, in colloquial language, ‘exact’ and the knowledge constructed in this way is referred to as ‘specific’. Not everyone is thinking about the fact that algorithms provide certain knowledge, but only if we meet certain restrictive conditions, we will build (...) new, additional kind of framework. According to Odo Marquard, this will be the case if we decide to dominate exclusive reason. This reason, i.e. the rejecting, bypassing and reducing reason, will bypass and disregard all the limitations that algorithmic knowledge carries, sometimes emphasizing the extremely arrogant basic advantage of algorithmic knowledge, i.e. its certainty.
