    A resenha apresenta e discute os pontos centrais do livro de Matteo Pasquinelli, The eye of the master: A social history of artificial intelligence. Londres/Nova York, Verso, 2023. A interpretação da automação como resultado do desenvolvimento da divisão do trabalho e de suas métricas, junto ao primado dos componentes mentais de todo trabalho, leva o autor a reinterpretar a história dos esforços teóricos que preconizaram o advento da Inteligência Artificial. Sua epistemologia política busca fazer justiça à contribuição de formas e forças sociais aos estágios chave do desenvolvimento das redes neurais artificiais de aprendizado de máquina, além de estreitar os laços entre supervisão do trabalho e automação.The review presents and discusses the central points of Matteo Pasquinelli’s book, The eye of the master: A social history of artificial  intelligence. Londres/Nova York, Verso, 2023. The interpretation of automation as a result of the development of the division of labor and its metrics, along with the primacy of the mental components of all labor, leads the author to reinterpret the history of theoretical efforts that anticipated the advent of Artificial Intelligence. His political epistemology seeks to do justice to the contribution of social forms and forces to the key stages in the development of artificial neural networks and machine learning, as well as to strengthen the ties between labor supervision and automation

    AI at Work: Automation, Distributed Cognition, and Cultural Embeddedness

    This cross-disciplinary exploration delves into the multiple intersections between Artificial Intelligence (AI), work, and organization, mobilizing different research strands such as STS and Organization Theory, as well as the History of Science and Technology and Cultural Sociology. Matteo Pasquinelli proposes an exploration of theories of automation drawn from political economy and the history of science and technology, investigating their explanatory accounts of technological innovation. As argued by the author, these theories provide important foundations for unveiling the socio-technical genealogy of current forms of AI as well as the specific logic of automation that they follow. Cristina Alaimo continues by illustrating the perspective of distributed social cognition for the study of AI in organizational settings, crucial for abandoning the assumption that intelligence is solely an attribute of individuals or technologies. This second contribution invites an exploration of how, even in organizational environments characterized by the presence of AI, intelligence still appears as a collective capability. Finally, Alessandro Gandini stresses how the encounter between AI and society is primarily a cultural issue, proposing a critical discussion of its main implications. For the author, sociology should approach AI phenomenologically and critically, but it should also take advantage from the innovations that tools such as generative AI might bring

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
