"AI’s apparatus of computation and social relations produces a nested set of
inevitable harms, from states of exception to environmental degradation. A
common thread running through its mathematical operations, its c2ontemporary
applications and its accompanying ideologies is the reemergence of eugenics and
authoritarian social logics.
In this talk I will argue for an anti-fascist approach to AI that aims for
alternative technopolitical outcomes. I will suggest a strategy of decomputing
which combines degrowth and decolonialism in order to delegitimise AI’s
extractivism and its use as a diversion from the structural failures of the
status quo. In practice, this would consist of forms of action that reject
hyperscale machinery hurtful to the commonality, and instead attempt to
transform collective subjectivities and technical arrangements at the same
time."
