Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
In this seminar, we explore how care is augmented or depleted by Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI technologies are often positioned by the UK Government (and governments elsewhere) as a ‘solution’ to high levels of unmet care needs and poor working conditions and pay in the sector. Critiquing this position, we analyse: how AI technologies are funded and implemented in care in England; how neoliberal New Public Management discourses underlie the connection between AI and efficiency; and how these discourses omit to consider ethics and production processes behind technologies, which are where we see harms and the depletion of care.
Booking is required for people outside of the Department of Social Policy and Intervention (DSPI).
