Symposium: Digital Mirror, Invisible Labor
When: | Th 19-12-2024 14:00 - 17:30 |
Where: | House of Connections, Noorderlicht, Akerk |
This Digital Mirror symposium explores the human labor required to feed, train, and maintain AI systems.
We delve into the world of clickwork and digital microtasks: low-paid human labor essential for AI functioning, yet often invisible. Why does this work remain unseen, and what does it reveal about the power dynamics supported by technology? What can history teach us about the relationship between technology, labor, and power?
