Seminar

Seminar organised on May 15th at Sorbonne Université in Paris

Technology is ubiquitous in our daily lives, be it personal, social, professional, medical. The aim of this seminar is thus to explore the cultures of technology, i.e. technology as situated rather than detached and decontextualised. In particular, this seminar will inspect artificial intelligence and machine learning (but not only). There will be five presentations during the seminar, evolving in different areas of human-computer interaction, design research and science and technology studies. The seminar will take place on site at the Sorbonne University and online.
