Invited lecture by Lucy Suchman on the ‘Deadly ground truths of AI-enabled warfighting’
Lucy Suchman Professor Emerita of Anthropology of Science and Technology in the Department of Sociology at Lancaster University. Her research works at the intersections of anthropology and the field of feminist science and technology studies, focused on cultural imaginaries and material practices of technology design. My current research extends my longstanding critical engagement with the fields of artificial intelligence and human-computer interaction to the domain of contemporary militarism. I am concerned with the question of whose bodies are incorporated into military systems, how and with what consequences for social justice and the possibility of a less violent world.
