Hi all, We are inviting chapter proposals for an edited book as part of the ECREA Open Access Book Series <https://ecrea.eu/ECREA-Book-Series> on AI Infrastructures and Sustainability Editors: Anne Mollen, Sigrid Kannengießer, Fieke Jansen, Julia Velkova Amidst the hype around generative AI, critical approaches are demonstrating how technologies of automation foster forms of exploitation in relation to natural resources and the environment, labour and working conditions as well as social injustice. This edited volume seeks to contribute a comprehensive media and communication research perspective on the socio-ecological relations that emerge from practices of use and development of “AI”. We are looking for contributions that analyze the manifold social processes and related tensions that contribute towards manifesting AI infrastructures, with their underlying ideologies, power dynamics, forms of exploitation, extractivism, inequalities etc. Deadline: February 29, 2024 Further information can be found here <https://www.uni-muenster.de/Kowi/institut/arbeitsbereiche/call-for-contributions-ecrea-book.shtml>.
