概述

相較於豐富的演算法技術與實作介紹,對於演算法的人文與社會科學反思較少,然而演算法對當代社會的重要性與影響社會的程度不容社會科學的持續缺席。著眼於此,本課程嘗試整理與介紹近幾年社會科學對演算法的檢視,融入科技與社會、地理學、批判的數據研究 (critical data studies)、社會學、媒體研究等領域的發展。每次上課3小時,共11週。 There is no shortage of technical accounts of algorithm, but the social processes of how they are built and the consequences of them being incorporated into different worlds deserve equal if not more attention. Accordingly, the course focuses on social scientific accounts of algorithms and ways to reconsider their operation in contemporary society. It is divided into two parts: the first half explores social practices of algorithm development and the second half algorithms and ethics.

教學方式

Understanding the social processes of how they are built and critically reflecting upon the consequences of them being incorporated into different worlds.
