In a data-saturated society, where every click leaves a trace, even our feelings are now governed by algorithmic logic. What if love, this last stronghold of irrationality, were also mapped, filtered, and predicted? This contemporary and necessary question lies at the heart of the book Love under algorithm.

Through both analytical and sensitive writing, the author creates a subtle yet disturbing portrait of romantic encounters in the age of apps, optimized profiles, and digitally guided choices.

Hearts and Codes: Digital Love’s Helper (or Hindrance)Dating platforms now promise to help you meet "the right person" through complex calculations. Matching, compatibility, swiping, data love—concepts that signify a profound shift in how we love.

But what do we lose when intuition gives way to algorithms? This book incisively explores:

  • The opaque workings of dating apps

  • Biases embedded in romantic recommendations

  • The illusion of infinite choice versus standardized profiles

  • The transformation of love language into marketing data

Seduction becomes a designed experience, emotions are coded, and spontaneity is gradually replaced by probabilities.

When Technology Redefines EmotionsBeyond sociological analysis, Love under algorithm examines intimacy. How do individuals experience this new form of dating? What emotions arise within this structured context? The author voices the experiences of those who've loved, lost, and hoped through screens, revealing:

  • Stories of increased loneliness despite promised connections

  • Testimonials of joyful encounters made possible by technology

  • Difficulties forming lasting relationships in a culture of emotional zapping

  • Nostalgia for times when love happened spontaneously, without profiles

This interplay between technology and emotion enriches the discussion significantly.

A Critical Mirror of Our Connected EraImplicitly, the book interrogates major contemporary social transformations. At stake is not just love, but a broader shift in our relationship to freedom, the body, and time, highlighting:

  • The impact of digital capitalism on human relationships

  • Self-quantification in matching logics

  • Commodification of love as a consumable product

  • Blurring of boundaries between private and public life

This questioning fosters essential reflection on how we construct our choices in a technology-mediated world.

Accessible, Documented, and Engaging WritingA major strength of Love under algorithm is its blend of rigorous analysis and approachable tone. The author combines sociological references, personal anecdotes, conversation excerpts, and philosophical insights.

This text appeals to:

  • Readers interested in social changes driven by digital technology

  • Dating app users seeking perspective

  • Enthusiasts of contemporary psychology and humanities

  • Anyone questioning authenticity’s place in a calculated world
