Hi,
I was hoping you might be able to spread the word about our PhD Winter School
on 'Carefully researching digitisation' in Graz this November. We'd love to
share this with everyone via the mailing list. Smart Regulation Winter School
2025 - Smart
Regulation
When: November 5th - 7th, 2025
Where: Graz
What: Carefully researching digitization
Submission Deadline: August 8th
The Doctoral Winter School invites doctoral students to present their ongoing
research work on digitization. The ongoing digitization of society, and more
specifically the integration of artificial intelligence into a multitude of
human activities, poses significant challenges. These challenges encompass the
adaptation of human behaviors and the identification of novel methodologies
for the effective integration of these technological advancements. The
prevailing concern is that these developments may lead to the emergence of a
technological oligarchy, characterized by the concentration of power and
influence in the hands of a select few. Furthermore, there is a growing
concern over the escalating demand for resources, which is contributing to the
acceleration of climate change.
Based on the premise that our doing research is always also performative,
co-creating the phenomenon to be researched we want to use the winter school
to together elaborate one way on how to best co-create this issue of
digitization and AI in our STS research. Basing the discussion on the notion
of response-ability and the guidance of scholar Michela Cozza we want to take
advantage of the small group setting and discuss these issues closely in
relation to each participant's work.
Best,
Laura Kunz
