Feeding the Machine by James Muldoon, Mark Graham and Callum Cant.

Feeding the Machine unveils the hidden dynamics of global capitalism and the exploitation that powers the artificial intelligence. Written in a transparent, jargon-free style, Muldoon et al. endeavour to make their work appear human - but is the decision to write accessibly a neutral one?

Muldoon et al. reveal how the AI industry functions as an ‘extraction machine’ that exploits workers across global capitalism. While the authors shed light on these inequalities, far from changing the social relations that have built this industry, are they themselves guilty of feeding the machine?

The RRB now also includes This Podcast Does Not Exist (scroll down for parts 1 & 2).
