The purpose of this work package is to 

1. Understand AI technologies in their societal aspects as they are implemented across domains. 
2. Examine the social shaping of AI technologies within ongoing valuation and standardization processes.
3. Study emergent AI infrastructures together with their publics. 

This work package investigates broader societal challenges that arise with development and implementation of AI technologies. It combines close-up case studies of selected AI devices and examines the societal stakes, as AI technologies shape problem solutions and enter everyday lives. We will follow how AI technologies are implemented in automation, predictive modeling, and machine learning and examine how they configure societal relations more broadly. By opening up AI matters to broader publics, we will enable trans-disciplinary engagements and deliberation.
