The public arena relies on artificial intelligence (AI) to ever greater degrees. Media structures hosting the public arena—such as Facebook, TikTok, Twitter, and YouTube—increasingly rely on AI-enabled applications to shape information environments, autonomously generate content, and communicate with people. These applications affect the public arena’s functions: make society visible to itself and provide spaces for the formation of publics and counterpublics. We offer a framework that allows for the conceptualization and empirical examination of AI’s structural impact on the public arena. Based on this perspective, we argue that the growing uses of AI will lead to a strengthening of intermediary structures that can exercise a greater degree of control over the public arena. In addition, the data-driven nature of most AI-applications threatens to push challenges to the political status quo out of sight and obstruct the assessability of AI-enabled interventions.
公共领域越来越依赖人工智能(AI)。承载公共领域的媒体结构,如Facebook、TikTok、Twitter和youtube,越来越依赖于支持人工智能的应用程序来塑造信息环境,自主生成内容,并与人交流。这些应用影响了公共舞台的功能:使社会自身可见,并为公众和反公众的形成提供空间。我们提供了一个框架,允许概念化和实证研究人工智能对公共领域的结构性影响。基于这一观点,我们认为人工智能的日益使用将导致中介结构的加强,从而可以对公共领域行使更大程度的控制。此外,大多数人工智能应用的数据驱动性质有可能将政治现状的挑战推到视线之外,并阻碍人工智能干预措施的可评估性。

From “the” public sphere to a network of publics: towards an empirically founded model of contemporary public communication spaces 从“公共领域”到“公共网络”:走向当代公共交流空间的实证模型

“The” public sphere is now irretrievably fractured into a multiplicity of online and offline, larger and smaller, more or less public spaces that frequently (and often serendipitously) overlap and intersect with one another. This diverse array of what have been described variously as public spheres, public spherules, platform publics, issue publics, or personal publics nonetheless serves many of the same functions that were postulated for the public sphere itself. However, while the communicative structures, functions, and dynamics of many such spaces have been studied in isolation, we still lack a more comprehensive model that connects such case studies in pursuit of an overarching perspective. This article sets out a fundamental toolkit for the development of such an empirically founded model of the contemporary spaces for public communication. It identifies the crucial conceptual building blocks and empirical approaches that may be combined to produce genuinely new insights into how the network of such spaces is structured, and in turn structures our everyday experience of public communication.
“公共领域”现在已经不可挽回地分裂成线上和线下、大的和小的、或多或少的公共空间的多样性,这些公共空间经常(通常是偶然的)相互重叠和交叉。这些被描述为公共领域、公共领域、平台公众、议题公众或个人公众的各种各样的东西,尽管如此,它们的许多功能与公共领域本身的假设是相同的。然而,尽管许多此类空间的交流结构、功能和动态已经被孤立地研究过,但我们仍然缺乏一个更全面的模型来将这些案例研究联系起来,以追求一个总体的视角。本文为当代公共传播空间的实证模型的发展提供了一个基本的工具。它确定了关键的概念构建模块和经验方法,这些方法可以结合起来,对如何构建这些空间的网络产生真正的新见解,并反过来构建我们的日常公共交流体验。

In search of the (Black) international: The Black Scholar and the challenge to communication and media studies 寻找(黑人)国际:黑人学者与传播与媒体研究的挑战

In the 1970s, the journal The Black Scholar (TBS) published two special issues largely under-read in communication studies, titled “Black Media I” and “Black Media II.” The lack of engagement in these special issues by communication scholars represents not merely disciplinary differences but it also signifies different trajectories that both fields take on Marxism. Communication studies would take Europe as its starting point, while Black studies would not dismiss Europe, but would take the Third World as its point of departure. In the process, media and communication analysis in TBS holds more critical potential than what currently exists in communication studies approaches to both Blackness and Marxism. Using a sociology of knowledge approach, I argue that the place to start a wholistic, Marxist, Black studies analysis of communication begins not in communication studies, but in Black studies, which TBS’s special issues are representative of.
20世纪70年代,《黑人学者》(the Black Scholar,TBS)杂志发表了两期在传播学研究中阅读量很大的特刊,题为“黑人媒体I”和“黑人媒体II”。传播学学者对这些特刊的缺乏参与不仅代表了学科差异,也意味着这两个领域对马克思主义的不同轨迹。传播学研究将以欧洲为起点,而黑人研究不会忽视欧洲,而是以第三世界为起点。在这一过程中,TBS中的媒体和传播分析比目前黑人和马克思主义传播研究方法中存在的更具批判性的潜力。运用知识社会学的方法,我认为,对传播进行整体的、马克思主义的、黑人研究的分析不是从传播研究开始的,而是从黑人研究开始的。

Communicative labor resistance practices: organizing digital news media unions and precarious work 沟通性劳动抵抗实践:组织数字新闻媒体工会与不稳定工作

Unionization among newsworkers has increased in the U.S. since 2015. This article develops a relational theoretical framework to examine communicative labor resistance practices. It is grounded in critical organizational communication, social movement studies, sociology of work, and labor studies, responding to how newsworkers’ union resistance has been undertheorized in extant journalism and media studies research. It argues that communicative labor resistance practices should be based on three propositions: a dialectical process and continual cycle of organizing unions’ resistance and exploitative precarious work; the relationship among heterogenous alternative digital communication labor resistance practices; and a relational approach to digitally-mediated communicative material conditions and discursive forms of resistance rhetoric in social movement genres of organizational communication that mutually co-produce and constitute unions’ resistance practices and organizational self-structuring. This framework has implications for understanding precarious work, class, professional identity, and journalism’s democratic role in society, and for doing labor resistance-oriented communication research.
自2015年以来,美国新闻工作者的工会化有所增加。本文发展了一个相关的理论框架来研究交往性劳动抵抗实践。它以批判性组织沟通、社会运动研究、工作社会学和劳动研究为基础,回应了新闻工作者工会抵抗在现有的新闻和媒体研究中是如何被理论化的。本文认为,交流劳动抵抗实践应基于三个命题:组织工会抵抗与剥削不稳定工作的辩证过程和持续循环;异质替代性数字通信劳动抵抗实践的关系以及对组织沟通的社会运动类型中数字媒介的沟通物质条件和抵抗修辞的话语形式的关系方法,它们相互共同产生并构成了工会的抵抗实践和组织的自我结构。这一框架对理解不稳定工作、阶级、职业身份和新闻在社会中的民主角色,以及从事以劳工抵抗为导向的传播研究具有启示意义。

Not everything is changing: on the relative neglect and meanings of continuity in communication and social change research 并非一切都在变化:论传播与社会变迁研究中对连续性的相对忽视及其意义

One of the central interests of media and communication research is how technologies and communication media are involved in social and cultural change. Often such studies are rather one-sided because they disregard questions of continuity, which can lead to inadequate analyses and exaggerated claims of change. Three categories of reasons for this bias towards change are identified through a literature review. Crucially, since continuity remains an undervalued concern, we lack sophisticated theorizations and analytical approaches to study it adequately. In response, this article presents a taxonomy of continuity based on a thematic analysis of 74 articles in leading communication journals. The five observed dimensions of continuity offer scholars the vocabulary and a conceptual framework to study continuity more systematically as a complex and multi-dimensional issue. This contribution serves as a starting point towards building a theory of change and continuity, and suggestions for necessary future work are given.
媒体和传播研究的核心兴趣之一是技术和传播媒体如何参与社会和文化变革。这种研究往往是片面的,因为它们忽视了连续性问题,这可能导致分析不足和对变化的夸大。通过文献综述,确定了这种偏向变革的三类原因。至关重要的是,由于连续性仍然是一个被低估的问题,我们缺乏复杂的理论和分析方法来充分研究它。作为回应,本文基于对主流传播期刊上74篇文章的主题分析,提出了一种连续性分类法。连续性的五个维度为学者们提供了词汇和概念框架,使他们能够更系统地将连续性作为一个复杂而多维的问题来研究。这一贡献是建立变革和连续性理论的起点,并对未来必要的工作提出了建议。

Anthropomorphism in human–robot interactions: a multidimensional conceptualization 人机交互中的拟人化:多维概念化
IF 3.7 1区 文学 Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2022-10-18 DOI: 10.1093/ct/qtac020

With robots increasingly assuming social roles (e.g., assistants, companions), anthropomorphism (i.e., the cognition that an entity possesses human characteristics) plays a prominent role in human–robot interactions (HRI). However, current conceptualizations of anthropomorphism in HRI have not adequately distinguished between precursors, consequences, and dimensions of anthropomorphism. Building and elaborating on previous research, we conceptualize anthropomorphism as a form of human cognition, which centers upon the attribution of human mental capacities to a robot. Accordingly, perceptions related to a robot’s shape and movement are potential precursors of anthropomorphism, while attributions of personality and moral value to a robot are potential consequences of anthropomorphism. Arguing that multidimensional conceptualizations best reflect the conceptual facets of anthropomorphism, we propose, based on Wellman’s (1990) Theory-of-Mind (ToM) framework, that anthropomorphism in HRI consists of attributing thinking, feeling, perceiving, desiring, and choosing to a robot. We conclude by discussing applications of our conceptualization in HRI research.
随着机器人越来越多地扮演社会角色(如助手、同伴),拟人化(即对实体具有人类特征的认知)在人机交互(HRI)中发挥着重要作用。然而,目前在HRI中对拟人化的概念化还没有充分区分拟人化的前兆、后果和维度。在先前研究的基础上,我们将拟人化概念化为人类认知的一种形式,其核心是将人类的心理能力归因于机器人。因此,与机器人的形状和运动相关的感知是拟人化的潜在前兆,而将人格和道德价值归因于机器人则是拟人主义的潜在后果。我们认为多维概念化最能反映拟人化的概念方面,基于Wellman(1990)的心理理论(ToM)框架,我们提出HRI中的拟人化包括将思维、感觉、感知、渴望和选择归因于机器人。最后,我们讨论了我们的概念化在HRI研究中的应用。

Disinformation as a context-bound phenomenon: toward a conceptual clarification integrating actors, intentions and techniques of creation and dissemination 作为一种语境约束现象的虚假信息:走向整合行动者、意图和创造与传播技术的概念澄清

Although disinformation has become a popular concept, we lack an integrative conceptualization that connects the actors, intentions and techniques underlying deceptive information. In this article, we conceptualize disinformation as a context-bound deliberate act for which actors covertly deceive recipients by de-contextualizing, manipulating or fabricating information to maximize utility with the (targeted) outcome of misleading recipients. This conceptualization embeds fragmented accounts of disinformation in a networked and participatory information logic, and offers a comprehensive account of the conditions under which different actors may decide to deceive, how they deceive, and what they aim to achieve by deceiving recipients. Our conceptualization may inform (machine-learning) techniques to detect disinformation and interventions that aim to trigger suspicion by breaking through the truth-default state.
尽管虚假信息已经成为一个流行的概念,但我们缺乏一个将欺骗性信息背后的参与者、意图和技术联系起来的综合概念。在这篇文章中,我们将虚假信息概念化为一种受上下文约束的蓄意行为,行为者通过去上下文化、操纵或捏造信息来暗中欺骗接受者,以最大限度地利用误导接受者的(有针对性的)结果。这种概念化将虚假信息的碎片化描述嵌入了一个网络化和参与性的信息逻辑中,并全面描述了不同行为者可能决定欺骗的条件、他们如何欺骗,以及他们通过欺骗接受者的目的。我们的概念化可能会为(机器学习)技术提供信息,以检测虚假信息和干预措施,这些干预措施旨在通过突破真相默认状态来引发怀疑。

Virtual Relationship Memory (VRM) is a conceptual model to explore the way people remember and socially construct their romantic relationships, with a focus on the breakup process and memories after a relationship has ended. The model is situated within the research exploring relationships, technology, and memory. We articulate three components—objects, networks, and stories—which independently and concurrently represent how communication technology affects relational and memory-making processes. We first review research into memory, relational dissolution, and mediated communication to situate the VRM at the nexus of those three domains of study. We define and describe features of the VRM (objects, stories, and networks) and build towards a comprehensive conceptual model. To conclude, we present several potential future research directions—management strategies, curation of emotion, and dualistic functions of memory—with implications for building, extending, and stretching the boundaries of VRM.
虚拟关系记忆(VRM)是一个概念模型,旨在探索人们记忆和社会建构浪漫关系的方式,重点关注分手过程和关系结束后的记忆。该模型位于探索关系、技术和记忆的研究中。我们阐明了三个组成部分——对象、网络和故事——它们独立且同时地代表了通信技术如何影响关系和记忆形成过程。我们首先回顾对记忆、关系消解和中介沟通的研究,以定位VRM在这三个研究领域的联系。我们定义和描述VRM的特征(对象、故事和网络),并构建一个全面的概念模型。最后,我们提出了几个潜在的未来研究方向——管理策略、情绪管理和记忆的二元功能——以及构建、扩展和扩展VRM边界的含义。

The Perceived Convincingness Model: why and under what conditions processing fluency and emotions are valid indicators of a message’s perceived convincingness 感知说服力模型:为什么以及在什么条件下处理流利度和情绪是信息感知说服力的有效指标

Persuasive messages aim to influence people’s behavior. Arguments in these messages typically refer to the positive consequences of the advocated behavior or the negative consequences of failing to do so. It has been claimed that people automatically generate a judgment about the message’s convincingness. We present the Perceived Convincingness Model (PCM) to explain how people generate this judgment based upon the fluency with which they process the message and the intensity of the resulting emotions. When these experiences are elicited by the processing of the message’s arguments, they can be crude, yet relevant indicators of the extent to which the arguments meet the normative criteria of acceptability, relevance, and sufficiency. Thus, under some conditions, trusting one’s feelings may be a rational strategy when deciding to heed an advice or not.
有说服力的信息旨在影响人们的行为。这些信息中的论点通常是指所倡导的行为的积极后果或不这样做的消极后果。有人声称,人们会自动对信息的可信度做出判断。我们提出了感知说服力模型(PCM)来解释人们如何根据他们处理信息的流畅性和由此产生的情绪的强度来产生这种判断。当这些经验是通过对信息论证的处理而得到时,它们可能是粗糙的,但却是论证满足可接受性、相关性和充分性等规范标准程度的相关指标。因此,在某些情况下,在决定是否听取建议时,相信自己的感觉可能是一种理性的策略。

Thus, under some conditions, trusting one’s feelings may be a rational strategy when deciding to heed an advice or not.","PeriodicalId":48102,"journal":{"name":"Communication Theory","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2022-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47609599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Approaching evolutionary communication 接近进化传播

J. Lull
The determining roles played by communication in the ongoing evolution of our species remain largely unexplored in communications-related disciplines. An unhelpful controversy that raged over E. O. Wilson’s sociobiology last century contributed to the problem and is reconsidered here in terms of the fault lines that run between natural science, social science, and politics. The article describes paths for future theoretical development by focusing first on the link between human communications behavior and evolutionary psychology. With an emphasis on understanding the crisis of community facing the world today, evolutionary communication is proposed as a theoretical alternative to limited proximate perspectives afforded by cultural analysis alone. The inherent interdisciplinary nature of communication makes the field a prime candidate for conducting research grounded in the deep-time explanatory framework of evolutionary theory and the epistemological assumptions of scientific humanism.
通信在我们物种正在进行的进化中所起的决定性作用,在通信相关学科中基本上尚未得到探索。上个世纪,E.O.Wilson的社会生物学引发了一场毫无帮助的争论,这场争论促成了这个问题,并在这里从自然科学、社会科学和政治之间的断层线的角度进行了重新思考。本文首先关注人类交流行为和进化心理学之间的联系,描述了未来理论发展的道路。在强调理解当今世界面临的社区危机的情况下,进化传播被认为是一种理论上的替代方案,可以取代仅由文化分析提供的有限的直接视角。传播学固有的跨学科性质使该领域成为基于进化论的深层时间解释框架和科学人文主义的认识论假设进行研究的主要候选者。
