OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
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).
DSPI Members do not need to register.
