Vol.5 - WE MUST KNOW. Field Notes 2: TÜRKİYE with AI: Walking the Border of Personalization (WE MUST KNOW. English Edition)

WE MUST KNOW. Vol.5 / Field Notes 2: TÜRKİYE with AIWalking the Border of PersonalizationThis book is Volume 5 of the WE MUST KNOW. series and the second volume of its Field Notes line. In this volume, the field turns to Türkiye, where numbers reveal the structure of society and human ties weave the narrative of individual lives.This is a field note layered with vast datasets, news logs, primary sources, and the bodily sensation of actually being there. What mathematical models reveal is not only the framework of institutions, but also the quiet logic beneath everyday life.Conversations on street corners, the silence of mosques, words exchanged in hotels, and the surface of Ebru water touched for the first time — each gives new contours to the numbers.“Personalization,” which resists full standardization, is not merely a weakness. It is also a survival strategy through which people support one another. Walking with AI, raising questions, and recording what emerges, this book looks toward dignity — onur — hidden in the depths of silence.Between statistics and human ties, institutions and people, objectivity and bodily sensation, this is a narrative field note for a new era.WE MUST KNOW.
