One important milestone was the switch from humans programming the computer (for eg UNIX) to the computer programming humans.
This probably happened around Web 2.0 when the algos got unleashed on us:

- Amazon suggestions,
- social media algorithmic timeline,
- next generation dating apps like Tinder,
and of course the infinite scroll (hypnosis).
