This book proposes a new theoretical framework for
approaching the causes and effects that digital technologies and the
imaginaries related to them have on the processes of self-interpretation
and subjectivation. It formulates three main theses. First, it argues
that today's digital technologies, which are primarily based on
artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms and big data are formidable
habitus machines: they offer increasingly personalized services, but
these machines are actually indifferent to individuals and their
personalities. Second, this book contends that the effectiveness of
these machines does not depend solely on their concrete capacity to
classify the social world. It also depends on the expectations, hopes,
fears, and imaginaries that we have concerning these technologies and
their capacities. This cultural habitus-a worldview, or world
picture-leads us to believe in the concrete effectiveness of AI and its
potential for our societies. Third, the author takes this Bourdieusian
notion of habitus and connects it to current "empirical turn" in
philosophy of technology. He contends that, by looking too closely at
the things themselves, many philosophers of technology have deprived
themselves of the possibility to study the symbolic conditions of
possibility in which single technological artifacts are always
embedded.
Digital Habitus will appeal to scholars and students
working in philosophy of technology, the ethics of artificial
intelligence, media studies, and science and technology studies.
