Since the theme is focused on the ethics of emerging technologies, is there any interest in a proposal focused on the ethics of AI, IoT, and other emerging platforms? As I?m sure you?ve also seen, there's a growing interest in and momentum building around platform regulation, which we could include in the proposal. It would be helpful to know if any of these (or other topics) are of interest, generally speaking, before I wrote something up. Best, Colin ?

Here are guidelines for workshops: https://www.asist.org/am18/call-for-proposals/workshops/. 2. The call I circulated a few days ago is from the Social Media SIG and is a call for a panel?that is, 3-5 people who briefly discuss one area during the regular conference. They would be happy to have some SIG-IEP folks participate. See here for more info on the two types of submissions: https://www.asist.org/am18/call-for-proposals/ (scroll down to ?Submission Types? for details). I hope this disambiguates the past several emails. Perhaps setting up a conference call where we could discuss ideas would be beneficial? (I leave that in the hands of John Burgess, who is this year?s chair, or someone else who wants to step forward). To re-ambiguate things (haha), I?m interested in a floating a third idea: a panel about the ways that emerging technologies can restrain or enhance information access, and the ethics therein. I would be willing to lead the development and submission efforts on this one if other folks are interested. Finally, to lead efforts on any of the following generally entails: a) developing the idea fully and getting collaborators on board b) writing the first draft of the submission c) soliciting feedback and revision d) submitting the proposal by the deadline e) shepherding collaborators just before and during the presentation and f) coordinating with ASIST administration if it is a workshop. Written out like that, it sounds like a long list, but it?s not really too bad. Most of it happens in bits, not all at once, and generally people are willing to collaborate and pitch in. I suggest changing the email subject line to make clear what we?re talking about: -Use ?2018 workshop? if you?re referring to a half-day workshop based on the ideas Emily circulated (or, honestly, it could draw from different ideas) -Use ?Social Media panel? if you?re referring to the call for panelists that I circulated a few days ago -Use ?Information Access panel? if you?re referring to the proposal I just mentioned above -Make up a different subject line if it?s about none of the above -Shannon Dr. Shannon M.

I suggest changing the email subject line to make clear what we?re talking about: -Use ?2018 workshop? if you?re referring to a half-day workshop based on the ideas Emily circulated (or, honestly, it could draw from different ideas) -Use ?Social Media panel? if you?re referring to the call for panelists that I circulated a few days ago -Use ?Information Access panel? if you?re referring to the proposal I just mentioned above -Make up a different subject line if it?s about none of the above -Shannon Dr. Shannon M.

Last year was a healthy mix of practical insight and academic reflection. I think it would be good to keep that balance if we can. From the GDoc, it looks like we?re leaning towards sustainable implementation of IoT. I try to keep up to date on the challenges of maintaining privacy and security in IoT systems, but I?m not an engineer. Personally, I would love to hear an update from someone who is actually involved in implementing IoT. I don?t know if that would be a keynote or just a panel, but it seems like it would be really beneficial. How does that sound? I?m trying to think of a potential people to ask, but I would welcome ideas and connections. Cheers, John John T. F.

See here for more info on the two types of submissions: https://www.asist.org/am18/call-for-proposals/ (scroll down to ?Submission Types? for details). I hope this disambiguates the past several emails. Perhaps setting up a conference call where we could discuss ideas would be beneficial?

I would be willing to lead the development and submission efforts on this one if other folks are interested. Finally, to lead efforts on any of the following generally entails: a) developing the idea fully and getting collaborators on board b) writing the first draft of the submission c) soliciting feedback and revision d) submitting the proposal by the deadline e) shepherding collaborators just before and during the presentation and f) coordinating with ASIST administration if it is a workshop.

I am currently the chair of SIG SI ( and the chair-elect of SIG IEP). In the SIG SI, we are discussing potential collaboration with other SIGs for the annual social informatics symposium. In the past 15 years, SIG SI hosted the annual social informatics symposium at the ASIS&T annual meeting. Considering the range of topics presented in the last year IEP workshop and those suggested on this thread, I thought it would be a great opportunity to join forces of the two SIGs and bring together a wider audience to look into the ethics and governance of platforms and AI and their societal implications. This can take form of a full-day symposium with a range of presentations from both SIGs. I was also thinking that we may be able to even reach out to the people in the industry to attend to start a dialogue on these pressing issues. > > What do you think? > > Best, > Emad > ----------------------------------------- > Emad Khazraee, Ph.D. > Assistant Professor > School of Information (ischool.kent.edu ) > Kent State University > Fellow, Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society > Harvard University > Tel:330-672-0006.

The initiative brings together researchers pursuing fundamental technical advances in AI with scholars considering its ethical, legal, and social implications. We seek a Postdoctoral Researcher who will help us explore how an integrated interdisciplinary approach to these issues can generate unique insights and provide an effective foundation for future innovation, policy, and advocacy. The initiative will focus on a number of key challenges in the near-term future of AI. We will investigate how AI might improve the quality of decision-making, while also posing new challenges to fairness, equality, autonomy, dignity, and privacy, among other core values. We will consider how AI risks exacerbating information and power asymmetries, while also providing a way to measure, model, and mitigate these dynamics. Our goal is to establish the appropriate role for AI in addressing pressing issues, while ensuring that it does so with due consideration of social context and ethical norms. The Postdoctoral Researcher will have the opportunity to help launch and shape this new initiative, conduct research, run seminars, stage events, and foster a truly interdisciplinary community. S/he will collaborate with one or more of the faculty supervisors associated with the initiative: Solon Barocas, Jon Kleinberg, Karen Levy, and Helen Nissenbaum. Applications are welcome from recent Ph.D. graduates with a range of disciplinary backgrounds (e.g., computer and information science, data science, the social sciences, public policy, philosophy, media studies, science and technology studies, or related fields). Law graduates or ABDs with strong backgrounds or work experience in related fields are also eligible to apply. An interest in and ability to do translational, cross-disciplinary work between fields is crucial. This is a one-year position with the possibility of a second year depending on performance and funding. The Postdoctoral Researcher may be located in Ithaca or New York City, depending on the location of the primary supervising faculty, but will have ample opportunity to spend time on both campuses. Applications should be submitted to: https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/10902 and should include a CV, up to two publications (or writing samples), the names and contact information of three references, and a cover letter summarizing the candidate's relevant background, accomplishments, and fit with the position. A transcript of graduate work (unofficial is acceptable) may also be requested. For substantive questions related to the initiative or position, please contact sbarocas at cornell.edu. The position is available for a Fall 2018 start (or sooner, given the candidate?s availability). We began to review applications on March 5th, but continue to welcome submissions. Diversity and inclusion are a part of Cornell University?s heritage. We are a recognized employer and educator valuing AA/EEO, Protected Veterans, and Individuals with Disabilities. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Proposed by Thomas J. Froehlich, Ph.D. I would like to follow some themes from a paper I recently published, "A Not-So-Brief Account of Current Information Ethics: The Ethics of Ignorance, Missing Information, Misinformation, Disinformation and Other Forms of Deception or Incompetence" (http://bid.ub.edu/en/39/froehlich.htm) and from a course that I just created and taught on The Age of Disinformation. In them, I developed a taxonomy of false informations and forms of deception, looked at the psychological grounds for ignorance adherents, examined the role of cognitive authorities in the (dis)information marketplace, and reviewed various techniques for combating fake news for information professionals, among other related issues. I would like to work through the notion of fake or pseudo- cognitive authority mentioned in the article and somewhat elaborated in my course: what it is, what its characteristics are, how it spreads through social media, specifically discussing a very recent study that found that lies spread faster online than the truth due to people, and not bots like we previously thought (Soroush Vosoughi, Deb Roy, and Sinan Aral, ?The spread of true and false news online,? Science, 09 Mar 2018, 359 (6380), 1146-1151. DOI: 10.1126/science.aap9559; http://science.sciencemag.org/content/359/6380/1146.) Such a study has alarmed social scientists and legal scholars who articulated concerns in such articles as David M. J. Lazer, Matthew A. Baum, Yochai Benkler, Adam J. Berinsky, Kelly M. Greenhill, Filippo Menczer, Miriam J. Metzger, et al., ?The science of fake news,? Science, 09 Mar 2018, 359 (6380), 1094-1096. DOI: 10.1126/science.aao2998; http://science.sciencemag.org/content/359/6380/1094/tab-article-info). Through such and related research, we may better understand the role of pseudo-cognitive authority, its characteristics, and venues, manifest in the spread and speed of fake news so that we can combat such phenomena in order to safeguard democracy. Short Bio: Thomas J. Froehlich, Ph.D., is Professor Emeritus, School of Information, Kent State University (27 years). The majority of his published work is concerned with ethical considerations in the information professions, evolving in part from his philosophy background (Ph.D., Duquesne University). Dr. Froehlich taught in the areas of information science, ethics, network and software resources, online searching, and user interface design. He was the chief architect and former Director of the Master of Science Program in Information Architecture and Knowledge Management at Kent State University, which now offers Master?s degrees in Knowledge Management, User Experience Design and Health Informatics. He has provided workshops, trainings, seminars or presentations in 26 countries, primarily in the areas of online searching and ethical concerns of information professionals. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Learn about spoofing at http://aka.ms/LearnAboutSpoofing] Hi all, Chris Wells (UW-Madison) and I are coediting a special issue of the journal /Political Communication /focusing on disinformation. The deadline is Oct 1, 2018. The link is http://tiny.cc/polcom-disinfo and the full call is below. Thought there'd be some interest from some of you who I know are working on these issues. Best, /DEEN ************** *Beyond fake news: The politics of disinformation* Special Issue of /Political Communication/ Editors: Deen Freelon & Chris Wells Discussions of ?fake news? rose to prominence quickly in academic and journalistic circles following the 2016 US presidential election. Scholars were quick to note the analytical deficiencies of this term, which encompasses a wide range of low-quality and potentially harmful news-like content (Wardle, 2017). The special issue we propose will focus on one such subtype, /disinformation/, whose political implications have become particularly pressing after the election. Although much disinformation is false, this is not its defining characteristic: rather, disinformation intentionally seeks to bring about a desired result using whatever messages are most effective, which can include truth, falsehoods, distortions, and inflammatory opinions. It is a type of propaganda in which the true source is usually kept hidden and the goal is often ?to engender public cynicism, uncertainty, apathy, distrust, and paranoia? (Jackson, 2017, n.p.). It should not be confused with /mis/information, wherein sources believe the content to be true. While disinformation has been a standard military tactic for millennia (Weedon, Nuland, & Stamos, 2017), it has become especially relevant in global politics for several reasons. First, the decades-long, worldwide decline in news trust and democratic institutions in general has made publics more open to messages from disingenuous yet ideologically-friendly sources. Second, the maturation of social media as political media has given such sources a highly effective platform to spread their messages cheaply and quickly. President Donald Trump?s embrace of disinformation outlets on Twitter (not to mention his frequent use of the term ?fake news?) demonstrates that elites are as susceptible as ordinary citizens. Third, until very recently, social media companies did not take disinformation seriously, which allowed it to thrive with impunity. Facebook?s Mark Zuckerberg initially discounted the importance of ?fake news? before later affirming it, and the company stated that it failed to identify political ads surreptitiously purchased by the Russian government and targeted at US citizens (Leonnig, Hamburger, & Helderman, 2017). For its part, Twitter for years allowed accounts operated by Kremlin-funded disinformation agents to impersonate legitimate American political actors (O?Brien, 2017). While communication researchers have developed a focus on misinformation in recent years (see e.g. Bode & Vraga, 2015; Nyhan, 2010; Weeks, 2015), the study of disinformation within our field is in its infancy (for a pioneering study, see Marwick & Lewis, 2017). But the developments outlined above suggest the topic deserves much more scholarly attention in contexts around the globe, especially from the field of communication. The circulation of claims intended to sow discord and subvert democratic participation is alarming to the extent that their purveyors may succeed. What is more, the potential effects of disinformation may radiate far beyond those directly exposed to it. The possibility that any unknown participant in a media environment may be a disinformation agent may itself be weaponized: for example, both the left and right have alleged that the other side has used ?paid protesters? or ?crisis actors? in various contexts, such as the recent high school shooting in Florida. Ultimately, we should study disinformation because it undermines the fundamental assumptions of authentic identity and motivation that make productive political communication possible. And it is likely that disinformation will remain a core component of our political communication system for the foreseeable future. Thus, political communication researchers are especially well-positioned to analyze and explain the political dimensions of disinformation, as researchers in other fields often neglect to address these matters. We seek papers that explore disinformation as a political phenomenon in accordance with the preceding, whether digital or not. Quantitative, qualitative, conceptual, and methodological submissions are all welcome, but all should make a substantial contribution to theory. Possible topics include (but are not limited to): * Disinformation and information automation (e.g., disinformation-spreading bots) * Disinformation in comparative perspective * Disinformation in the hybrid media system and attention economy * Effects and consequences of disinformation * Historical perspectives on disinformation * Individual differences in susceptibility to disinformation * Theorizing disinformation * Typologizing disinformation: Understanding differences between state-sponsored, corporate, domestic, and transnational disinformation All submissions should run between 6000 and 8000 words and follow /Political Communication/?s style guidelines. We will review and publish on the following schedule: * March 2018: Call opens * *October 1, 2018*: Initial submission deadline * November 2018: Reviews returned * 2019: Revision deadline, final decision notifications, and publication References Bode, L., & Vraga, E.

The goal is to bring scholars, media practitioners, educators, and/or activists together in one space so that we can all learn from and about each other?s research, creative projects, tools, and strategies. Submissions ? We are seeking submissions in 3 categories: paper presentations, workshops, and creative exhibitions. See website for submission details. *Scope* Anyone whose work focuses on the intersections of media and justice is invited to apply; we are particularly interested in research, creative projects, pedagogy, and activism with a specific local or regional focus. We are also interested in collaborative and community-based research or creative projects; we encourage workshops and panels that include diverse populations including students, youth, and community leaders. We are conceptualizing both media and justice in the broadest senses of the words. We are open to media forms and practices that include, but are not limited to: - film, TV, podcasts or radio programs, digital and social media, webisodes, advertising and PR campaigns, mediated performances, augmented reality, video games, photography, zines, etc. Because we are interested in changes on multiple levels and in various sectors, we are conceptualizing justice to include issues such as, but not limited to: - intersectional social justice (e.g. gender, ethnicity, sexuality, religion, ability), environmental justice, youth justice, criminal justice, immigration justice, media industry practices, representational inclusivity and equity, etc. ? Please circulate widely and don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions.

We also discussed the idea with John. Here, is the draft we put together for the workshop proposal. I tried to incorporate the themes suggested by the SIG IEP members and from last year notes. I also borrowed from Jenny's proposal. Please let us know if you have any feedback and if you are willing to serve on the program committee. For the Social Informatics Symposium we usually have a separate CFP which goes out after the ASIST acceptance notifications. The deadline is usually in August. We also send the result of review process before the early bird registration that presenters can register by then.

I am currently the chair of SIG SI ( and the chair-elect of SIG IEP). In the SIG SI, we are discussing potential collaboration with other SIGs for the annual social informatics symposium. In the past 15 years, SIG SI hosted the annual social informatics symposium at the ASIS&T annual meeting. Considering the range of topics presented in the last year IEP workshop and those suggested on this thread, I thought it would be a great opportunity to join forces of the two SIGs and bring together a wider audience to look into the ethics and governance of platforms and AI and their societal implications. This can take form of a full-day symposium with a range of presentations from both SIGs. I was also thinking that we may be able to even reach out to the people in the industry to attend to start a dialogue on these pressing issues. What do you think?

Here are guidelines for workshops:https://www.asist.org/am18/call-for-proposals/workshops/. 2. The call I circulated a few days ago is from the Social Media SIG and is a call for a panel?that is, 3-5 people who briefly discuss one area during the regular conference. They would be happy to have some SIG-IEP folks participate. See here for more info on the two types of submissions: https://www.asist.org/am18/call-for-proposals/ (scroll down to ?Submission Types? for details). I hope this disambiguates the past several emails. Perhaps setting up a conference call where we could discuss ideas would be beneficial? (I leave that in the hands of John Burgess, who is this year?s chair, or someone else who wants to step forward). To re-ambiguate things (haha), I?m interested in a floating a third idea: a panel about the ways that emerging technologies can restrain or enhance information access, and the ethics therein. I would be willing to lead the development and submission efforts on this one if other folks are interested. Finally, to lead efforts on any of the following generally entails: a) developing the idea fully and getting collaborators on board b) writing the first draft of the submission c) soliciting feedback and revision d) submitting the proposal by the deadline e) shepherding collaborators just before and during the presentation and f) coordinating with ASIST administration if it is a workshop. Written out like that, it sounds like a long list, but it?s not really too bad. Most of it happens in bits, not all at once, and generally people are willing to collaborate and pitch in. I suggest changing the email subject line to make clear what we?re talking about: -Use ?2018 workshop? if you?re referring to a half-day workshop based on the ideas Emily circulated (or, honestly, it could draw from different ideas) -Use ?Social Media panel? if you?re referring to the call for panelists that I circulated a few days ago -Use ?Information Access panel? if you?re referring to the proposal I just mentioned above -Make up a different subject line if it?s about none of the above -Shannon Dr. Shannon M.
