Humanities Perspectives on (Generative) AI
Tech corporations position potential “users” as failing to have grasped the full capacities of their AI products (OpenAI press release). We’ll consider, in contrast, two interventional responses to this sociotechnical situation that value the human capacity to make things: Matteo Pasquinelli’s “Introduction: AI as Division of Labour” from The Eye of the Master: A Social History of Artificial Intelligence and Johnson and Salter’s “Introduction: Provocations for Making” from Critical Making in the Age of AI.
