Write an Artificial Intelligence research article responsesOnly submit a bid if you are educated in Artificial Intelligence psychology
For this five page, 12 pt font, double spaced, typed paper (with an additional page for citations-that means five pages of text you write), you will write an auto-ethnographic account of the ways in which you are implicated within artificial intelligence. This paper is meant to be both a creative undertaking where you consider your own embodiment as a collaboration with artificiality (broadly defined). However it is not merely a memoir of a period of time of your everyday life, but must be related to the materials. As such you will cite from at least four class texts and consider key course terminology and concepts throughout.
I will review the procedures of autoethnography — but here is an important article on the subject
http://www.qualitative-research.net/index.php/fqs/article/view/1589/3095
The organization of the paper is as follows.
I. Introduction (Roughly one page)
You introduce the ideas of your paper. What is the point of this paper and what to you wish to convey as the main ideas to explored in the paper? You might want to carefully define your use of artificiality and some of the tensions in defining ‘artificial’.

II. Body (Roughly three pages)
Here you will fully engage with ideas that emerge from the course work and your thoughtful consideration of your own life.
Some questions you might wish to consider include:
i. Are you a pre modern, modern, or postmodern subject? How do you know? What are the capabilities and limitations of this type of subjectivity? What are the ways your own social class, race, class, gender, sexual orientation, nationality, geography, and/or physical and mental abilities produce certain relationships to power and agency?
ii. How did you come into the world? How might you imagine experiencing death? How did the technological imperative enhance or disable your own embodiment or sense of self?
iii. How are you cyborg gified? Is this a form of liberation or a form of imprisonment — how and why?
iv. Do you wish to be post human? Why or why not? What are examples of this from your everyday life?
v. What of your relationship with nonhuman animals? How are you co-produced in relationship with the nonhuman? What does this mean for your self concept when you consider the nonhuman — animal, material, immaterial?
III. Conclusion (Roughly one page)
Conclude the paper with some speculations about your future in this world of artificiality. How do you imagine your life to proceed? Are there reasons to be hopeful? (Is there room for hope?) What are the pleasures and dangers of artificiality?
IV. References
Remember to cite at least four class sources using either APA, Chicago, or MLA formatting.
