Critical Tech book club

Inviting folks who want to know more about the tech industry’s oppressive tactics that fuel oppression and capitalist exploitation, amongst other problems. We meet to discuss ideas that inspire us and teach us about the industry that is at the front line of imperial domination. This is not an academic group, hence we will not delve too deep into technical topics. It is aimed to create a space of collective learning. We can discuss books, papers, videos, articles and podcasts.

Every Thursday at Casino (Sonnenalle 100) from 15 to 17h

The first book we will start with is Atlas of AI. 

Intro – Atlas of AI by Kate Crawford offers an eye-opening exploration of artificial intelligence’s profound impact beyond its technical boundaries. The book delves into AI’s extensive environmental footprint involving resource extraction, manufacturing, and waste disposal, as well as its societal effects, including the exploitation of labor forces, perpetuation of biases, and potential erosion of privacy and democratic rights.

no experience required. Everyone is welcome.
