SUMMARY:ITeG-Lecture: "Cui bono, Data Science?"
DESCRIPTION:In the ITeG lecture series "Digital Society - A Design Challeng
 e", Dr. Juliane Jarke will provide insights on “Cui bono, Data Science?” on
  December 15, 2021. She is a senior researcher at the Institute for Informa
 tion Management and the Centre for Media, Communication and Information Res
 earch at the University of Bremen. She is co-founder of the Data Science Ce
 nter at the University of Bremen. Her research focusses on the increasing r
 elevance of digital data for society, related implications and design oppor
 tunities. Since 2009, Juliane serves as an independent expert to the Europe
 an Commission within the areas eInfrastructures, Data Infrastructures and D
 igital Science.\n\nSummary of her presentation:\n\nIn the introduction to E
 cologies of Knowledge: Work and Politics in Science and Technology (1995), 
 Susan Leigh Star asks: “Cui bono? Who is doing the dishes? Where is the gar
 bage going? What is the material basis for practice? Who owns the means of 
 knowledge production?” These questions sum up an approach to the social stu
 dies of science and technology (STS) that takes science and technology “off
  the pedestal” (Chubin and Chu 1989) – by treating both as something that p
 eople do together, that understands science as practice and technology as s
 ocio-political.\n\n\n\nTaking Leigh Star’s questions as a starting point, I
  will engage with some of the critical work on data science that has emerge
 d in STS over the past decade. This includes questions about the invisible 
 human labour required to run our AI-based infrastructures, questions about 
 social justice and racial bias in AI-based systems as well as proposals for
  community-led design practices and socio-technical innovation. Overall, th
 e talk provides a glimpse into the rich conceptual and methodological toolb
 ox that STS scholars have developed to critically examine technology design
  and use.
