Samenvatting

Samenvatting

Daar is de vijfde industriële revolutie. Daar is de volgende digitale technologie. En daar is de nieuwste AI-toepassing. Wie vandaag nadenkt over technologie en arbeid heeft er een hele kluif aan. Welke technologieën moeten wij, sociale wetenschappers, onderzoeken? Wijken die af van de technologieën van morgen? Hoe kunnen we als onderzoekers het tempo aanhouden waarmee nieuwe technologie verschijnt? En zitten we daarbij dan in het wiel of nemen we de kop? Om mee te kunnen in het debat zitten onderzoekers het potentieel van nieuwe technologie voortdurend achterna. Specifiek bestuderen ze hoe dit potentieel aanzet tot het genereren en het generaliseren van uitkomsten voor de factor arbeid. Deze aanpak camoufleert het daadwerkelijk gebruik van nieuwe technologie. In dit essay introduceer ik een benadering in lagen en fasen om technologiegebruik in de praktijk te begrijpen, dit als noodzakelijke voorwaarde om uitkomsten voor de factor arbeid te verklaren. Met deze benadering deel ik nieuwe technologieën op in een materiële en een functionele laag, twee lagen die ik bestudeer in drie centrale ontwikkelfasen, zijnde de ontwerp-, de implementatie- en de gebruiksfase. Ik bekijk daarvoor welke actoren een rol spelen en hoe elke rol doorwerkt in technologische en arbeidsinhoudelijke veranderingen.
