The article is based on linguistic-ethnographic fieldwork in a metal foundry in the Dutch-German borderland, where many employees have temporary contracts and diverse language backgrounds, and where many production tasks are

What if your boss was an algorithm? Economic incentives, legal challenges, and the rise of artifical intelligence at work
The Future of Work is an age-old fascination: with every new wave of technological innovation comes a series of thorny questions about its impact on the labor market. Will jobs be replaced by the new technology? If not, how will they be reshaped? What are the broader implications, both for individual workers and legal regulation more generally? Recent technological advances

Smart Technology, Artificial Intelligence, Robotics and Algorithms (STARA): Employees’ Perceptions and Wellbeing in Future Workplaces
Futurists predict that a third of jobs that exist today could be replaced by smart technology, artificial intelligence, robotics and algorithms (STARA). Robots will handle 52% of current work tasks by 2025, almost twice as many as in 2019. Rapid changes in machines and algorithms or computer processes could create 133 million new roles in place of 75 million that

Why Does Cultural Diversity Foster Technology-enabled Intergenerational Collaboration?
Globalization and information technology enable people to join the movement of global citizenship and work without borders. However, different type of barriers existed that could affect collaboration in today’s work environment, in which different generations are involved. Although researchers have identified several technical barriers to intergenerational collaboration (iGOAL), the influence of cultural diversity on iGOAL has rarely been studied. Therefore,

Using Artificial Intelligence to Promote Diversity
Artificial intelligence has had some justifiably bad press recently. Some of the worst stories have been about systems that exhibit racial or gender bias in facial recognition applications or in evaluating people for jobs, loans, or other considerations. 1 One program was routinely recommending longer prison sentences for blacks than for whites on the basis of the flawed use of

Accountability in Human and Artificial Intelligence Decision-Making as the Basis for Diversity and Educational Inclusion
Accountability is an important dimension of decision-making in human and artificial intelligence (AI). We argue that it is of fundamental importance to inclusion, diversity and fairness of both the AI-based and human-controlled interactions and any human-facing interventions aiming to change human development, behaviour and learning. Less debated, however, is the nature and role of biases that emerge from theoretical or

Centrality and Diversity in Search: Roles in A.I., Machine Learning, Social Networks, and Pattern Recognition
Centrality and Diversity are two important notions in Search in a generic manner. Their Roles in A.I., Machine Learning (ML), Social Networks, and Pattern Recognition are important. This book aims at clarifying these notions in terms of some of the foundational topics like search, representation, regression, ranking, clustering, optimization, and classification. Centrality and diversity have different roles in different tasks
