#comai — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #comai, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Today we have the first lecture of the summer term in our #ComAI lecture series, delivered by @snurb on ‘the’ #public sphere, which no longer exists in that form (if it ever did).

    The article ‘the’ is called into question just as much as ‘public’ and ‘sphere’.

    Welcome, Axel, as a Mercator Fellow to the @comai Research Unit and at @zemki!

  2. Right now, @snurb shares his insights on revisiting 'the' public sphere and its algorithmically shaped publics at the #ComAI Lectures at Bremer Presse-Club e.V., hosted by ZeMKI and @comai

  3. 🚉 ComAI Summer Retreat ⛰️

    I have just arrived in 🚊Graz, where we are meeting for the summer ☀️retreat of our @comai Research Unit.

    Until Wednesday, we want to discuss what #research has been carried out in the projects over the last 6️⃣ months, what the challenges of #triangulating #methods 🔣 are, how socio-material #constitution and #appropriation come together 🤲 in a process of #artificialintelligence #emergence, and much more.

    This will be followed by our #ComAI doctoral 👩‍🎓👨‍🎓 summer school.

  4. #CfP THE IMAGINATIVE LANDSCAPE OF AI – VISIONS, POSITIONS, CONFLICTS

    ❓ What are the #future #visions and #imaginaries of #communications, #society, and social change in diverse #global contexts in relation to #AI, #AGI and #ComAI?

    ❓ Which novel #ideological positions have emerged around the specific #affordances and #dilemmas of AI?

    📣 We are looking for submissions for a Special Section of the International Journal of Communication addressing questions like these:

    comai.space/en/call-for-papers

  5. While #OpenAI has released GPT-5, our research into the ‘imaginative landscape of AI’ in #SiliconValley / the San Francisco Bay Area is progressing.

    By ‘imaginative landscape of AI,’ we mean the entirety of visions, positions, and conflicts seen in relation to #AI. This is not just about the technological side but about broader ideas for the #future of communications and society with AI, as well as possible dangers for humans. It is fragmented, diverse, and highly contradictory.

    #ComAI

  6. This talk is tomorrow - on ‘The Future of Communicative AI: Why Societal Communication Matters and What This Means for Media and Communication Research’, #ComAI, #AI, #pioneercommunities, #Future: aimeetshss.acdh-ch-dev.oeaw.ac

  7. ComAI erforscht, wie KI unsere Kommunikation verändert – mit Blick auf Macht, Transparenz und Gemeinwohl. Wir fragen auch, wie sich offene Alternativen jenseits der Plattformökonomie entwickeln. #ComAI #GenAI #BigTech #artificialintelligence #SaveSocialDay

  11. Curious about the credibility of AI & voice assistants? 🤖 Join @SonjaUtz lab leader Everyday Media Lab, as she dives into the credibility of AI-driven info at the ComAI lecture series. 📅 Today, 14th January, 6pm at @zemki More details here: shorturl.at/8JhqN #AI #ComAI

  12. The new ZeMKI research report presents the diverse research activities at ZeMKI since fall 2023 on 164 pages. For the first time, special attention is paid to a focus topic, which is presented on a total of 24 pages: this year communicative artificial intelligence, or #ComAI for short.

  13. Will #chatbots teach your children? Jeremy Knox argues in his @zemki #ComAI lecture that such ideas are part of a long tradition of imagining the role of #technology in #education which is also a story of power in education. This becomes more and more sensory power.

  14. A reminder: today at 15:00 MET I will give a talk on #datafication, #automation and communicative #AI, discussing the need to broaden #mediatization research (at the online symposium "Living and Research in Times of Deep Mediatisation"). #ComAI

  24. On my way to the conference „Norbert Elias in der Praxis“, which is taking place today and tomorrow at Hochschule Esslingen: hs-esslingen.de/soziale-arbeit

    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

  25. 🚀‼️ 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!

  26. 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. sciences.social/@zemki/1131180
