There is growing reliance in algorithmic systems, particularly those powered by artificial intelligence (AI), whose mode of operation we call reckoning. Despite the profound differences in how human judgment and reckoning operate, as well as the persistent challenges in trying to overcome them, such systems influence and even replace human decision-makers in increasingly sensitive areas. In this paper, we argue that this reliance is misplaced and stems from a short-sightedness about how the reckoning is able to colonize judgment. What seems to be a growing accuracy in simulating judgment is, to a large extent, a growing influence of reckoning over judgment, for the reckoning delimits the contexts of operation and primes the adoption of its own inferential trajectories. This reflects on fundamental cognitive skills, such as realizing the relevant factors in contexts of moral deliberation.
