“…Machine learning (ML) algorithms—computerized methods of calculation that infer rules of computation from sets of data to make predictions and support decision-making tasks—are now powering many commonly used devices such as Web search engines (Richardson et al., 2006), social media applications (Hazelwood et al., 2018), online purchasing platforms (Portugal et al., 2018), and surveillance systems (Chokshi, 2019). In reaction to the growing ubiquity of these statistical methods of computation—that have greatly participated in the resurrection of artificial intelligence (AI)—scholars in Science and Technology Studies (STS) 1 have accounted for some of their constitutive relationships (Bechmann and Bowker, 2019; Crawford, 2021; Grosman and Reigeluth, 2019; Jaton, 2017, 2019, 2021; Neyland, 2019). By providing fine-grained depictions of ML algorithmic systems, these works have effectively acted as provisional countermeasures to the promotional rhetoric of AI over-enthusiasts and provided seminal means for greater governance of algorithmic systems (Radfar, 2019; Shellenbarger, 2019).…”

“…Berne : OFSP. 6 Ces problèmes sont proches de ceux qui ont motivé le projet des ethnographies de laboratoire pour étudier la science « en train de se faire » (Latour, 2005) ou, plus récemment, la constitution des algorithmes (Jaton, 2019) ou le travail des experts (Granjou et Barbier, 2010). conséquent, ces recherches passent à côté d'une prise nécessaire pour débattre des modalités de la production de l'éthique.…”

“…For about ten years, inquiries in Science & Technology Studies (STS) have documented the constitutive relationships of machine learning or artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, which are probabilistic models that infer calculation rules from sets of data (e.g. Hoffmann, 2017; Jaton, 2019 ; Lee, 2021 ). Among these social inquiries, some have focused on the material infrastructure required for the constitution of new algorithms ( Crawford, 2021 ; Jaton, 2021a ), especially in terms of data work and annotation ( Gray & Suri, 2019 ; Tubaro et al, 2020 ).…”
