new book "At the Edge of AI"

                Dear colleagues,

(Apologies for the self-promotion and cross-posting) I am incredibly 
happy to share that my book „*At the Edge of AI. Human Computation 
Systems and Their Intraverting Relations*“ has been published with 
transcript.

If you are interested in hybrid human–AI systems, human computation, 
citizen science, human–technology relations, and how they are negotiated 
in everyday life, I hope you will find this an interesting read.

In this book, I analyze how human computation or hybrid intelligence 
systems are developed in the field of citizen science to achieve what 
neither humans nor computers can do alone. Through multiple perspectives 
and methods, I examine the imagination of these assemblages, their 
creation, and everyday negotiation in the interplay of various actors 
and play/science entanglements at the edge of AI. Focusing on their 
human-technology relations, this ethnographic study shows how these 
formations are marked by intraversions, as they change with 
technological advancements and the actors' goals, motivations, and 
practices. With this work, I hope to contribute to the constructive and 
critical ethnographic engagement with human-AI assemblages in the making.
