Requirements: .ePUB, .PDF reader, 11.5 MB
Overview: How does automation affect us, our environment, and our imaginations? What actions should we take in response to automation? Beyond grand narratives and technology-driven visions of the future, what more can automation offer? With these questions in mind, The De Gruyter Handbook of Automated Futures provides a framework for thinking about and implementing automation differently. It consolidates automated futures as an inter- and transdisciplinary research field, embedding the imaginaries, interactions, and impacts of automation technology within their social, historical, societal, cultural, and political contexts. Promoting a critical yet constructive and engaging agenda, the handbook invites readers to collaborate with rather than resist automation agendas. Methodologically, the handbook is underpinned by a pedagogical approach to staging co-learning and co-creation of automated futures with, rather than simply for, people. In this way, the handbook encourages readers to explore new and alternative modes of research, fostering a deeper engagement with the evolving landscape of automation. Digital Transformation discourse often relies on the implementation of technologies such as cloud computing, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Big Data analytics, and the Internet of Things (IoT) to simplify operations, enhance customer experiences, and foster innovation. In addition to such an imagined transformation, automated futures point to a world where machines and automated systems accomplish tasks and processes instead of humans. This involves automating routine tasks, decision-making processes, and creative activities through robotics, AI, and other technological means.
