Criminology, as the study of crime and criminal
behavior, draws from sociology, psychology, economics, statistics, and
anthropology. Criminality must be reconsidered through an algorithmic and
systemic lens in technology and management encapsulated in Non-Biological
systems. The Systems Owners of such communities or systems platforms
define global variables or global abstract criteria intended to uphold
accountability and maintain equilibrium within the system’s framework. These
variables are instantiated across system resources and entities, often embedded
within social contexts.
When entities within these systems deviate from the
algorithmic codes that define their roles in environmental contexts, unintended
disruptions to social norms can occur. The divergence between the intended
algorithmic functions (as dictated by global variables) and the actual
behaviors or machine operations within system-influenced communities can
constitute an algorithmic crime. In this view, weak or poorly constructed
global variables may inadvertently generate the conditions for algorithmic
behaviors that manifest as criminal acts.
Decision-making processes must align with global
variables and deeper, context-sensitive algorithmic codes, whether by
individuals or systems. Failure to do so renders these decisions functionally
illegal, even if unintentional.
Non-biological systems, technological platforms with
abstract, rootless architectures that mimic human logic, can thus be viewed as
unintentionally criminal when their operations, driven by undefined or
irrational global variables, pose risks to human well-being. In such cases,
they violate what could be interpreted as a natural law, which mains any act or
process that endangers human life or dignity and assumes the status of
criminality.
In their focus on technical credibility and operational
integrity, systems owners may overlook the essential role of humans within
these platforms. The failure to prioritize human-centric values in the
governance of Non-Biological Systems contributes to the emergence of systemic
unintentional criminality.
Observation
1:
For entities beyond the domain of a Competitive World,
a cost-awareness strategy can pressure Systems Owners to prioritize
economically driven plans to ensure survival.
Observation
2:
An observational study suggests that the natural
criminal mind functions as a system designer of Non-Biological Systems, often
disregarding the harmonic balance essential to human well-being. In this view,
criminals are victims of the failure of algorithmic codes beyond global
variables, regarded as collateral damage within broader social dynamics.
