From the interview: "Now, when we pass from individual to collective
decisions, one group of people will prefer one decision, and another
group will prefer a different one. The result of this is that there
is no ultimate algorithm which can arbitrate between them, the mechanism
by which one decision is imposed at the expense of the others is going
to involve power in some sense, even in the limited sense of winning
an election. People will have things imposed on them that they do not
want. In this sense, taking decisions and establishing relations of
power necessarily go together. I would argue that this is not bad. This
is violence, power, but it's not bad. Why? Because the other alternative
would be that all decisions are algorithmic, and in that case we would
have no freedom at all."
