On my way to the conference „Norbert Elias in der Praxis“, which is taking place today and tomorrow at Hochschule Esslingen: https://www.hs-esslingen.de/soziale-arbeit-bildung-und-pflege/fakultaet/aktuelles/veranstaltungen/norbert-elias-in-der-praxis

My talk is about the extent to which research in the tradition of relational / process sociology helps to develop a well-founded view of the world of emerging „digital futures“ - the possible futures with digital media and their infrastructures. My example of this is communicative #AI, as we are investigating in our @comai research unit. #ComAI

Zwei Promotionsstellen in einem super spannenden Projekt zu vergeben: Es geht darum zu erforschen, wie durch #Pioniergemeinschaften und soziale #Bewegungen Unternehmen wie #OpenAI beeinflusst werden - und unsere Vorstellungen von kommunikativer #KI insgesamt, ob im #Journalismus, der #Bildung oder anderen Bereichen.

Die Stellen sind für 4 Jahre, zu 100% - und Teil eines strukturierten Promotionsprogramms am @zemki

Bei Fragen: Bitte einfach melden!

I am very much looking forward to this conference and the discussion about relational sociology in the tradition of Norbert #Elias.

One of the topics of my talk will be how to conceptualise hybrid #figurations of humans and communicative AI - and why a relational approach is important to understand #ComAI. https://sciences.social/@zemki/113118053146723464

Our Research Unit "Communicative AI", funded by the @dfg_public and the @fwf, in which we investigate the transformation of social communication with generative AI, is now on Mastodon: @comai If you are interested in our research, please follow. @communicationscholars, @sociology, #ComAI, #AI, #generativeAI, #mediatization, #pioneercommunities, #automation, #communication, #journalism, #datascience, #datafication, #datafiedsociety

Our special issue "Agency in Datafied Societies" has now been published in @convergence_nmt—most of the articles #OpenAccess. It is about #agency in #datafiedsociety with regard to #AI, #algorithms, #ComAI, personal assistants, service technologies, #social #media and more: https://journals.sagepub.com/toc/cona/30/3

GREAT: Our Research Unit "Communicative #AI" is funded by the @dfg_public! Using innovative methods and comprehensive data, we are investigating the consequences, risks and potential of the #automation of societal #communication. Topics include #pioneers, #implementation, #law, #governance, #journalism, political #discourse, the #private sphere, #health and #education - for the present and possible #future. #ComAI #generativeAI For more information: https://www.comai.space and follow @comai

@zemki summer party - we have a lot to celebrate with the Educators - including the fact that the @dfg_public Research Unit #ComAI is coming. But also much more. It was a great year! https://zemki.uni-bremen.de/neue-dfg-forschungsgruppe-zur-automatisierung-gesellschaftlicher-kommunikation/

The human is performing for the machine: Christian Greiffenhagen analyses #human #AI interaction, taking the example of hotel customers and how they are disciplined by a #facialrecognition kiosk. #ComAI Lectures at @zemki

What does the accelerated adoption of data driven communication systems and Al means for the climate emergency we are facing? Benedetta Brevini is posing this question on her #ComAI lecture at @zemki, @unibremen: Al is poised to drive 160% increase in data center
power demand. #sustainability #AI #openai #google #environment #datafication #datacenters

Just published, #openaccess: Our introduction to the Convergence thematic issue on "Agency in a datafied society" (with Stephan Görland). In the introduction, on the one hand, we shed light on the intellectual risks of empirical and conceptual ambiguity. On the other hand, we discuss #agency between #humans, #machines and everything in between. #mediatization #ComAI #AI #artificialintelligence #datafication https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/epub/10.1177/13548565241254692

The conference "Mediatization vs. datafication—Dialogues or competition?" in Lublin continues, including an interesting presentation by @odriessens on "Reconstructing #mediatization and #datafication into a productive research program".

The arguments I just made to relate mediatization research and #HMC more to each other come from this special issue of the journal HMC (with @goran_bolin, A. Guzman & @WLoosen) #automation #communication #AI #ComAI:

„AI as a research assistant“: @snurb at today‘s @zemki #ComAI Lectures: #AI is not only changing communication in society. It also provides a tool for exploring them, especially when it comes to #polarisation.
