摘要

这篇概念性论文介绍了算法体现排放的概念,以强调商业算法信息系统(如商业搜索引擎、社交媒体和推荐系统)促进的日常选择如何导致气候危机和其他形式的环境破坏。所提出的概念是通过整合信息研究、关键算法研究和环境影响评估领域的术语,并通过检查示例的战略选择而发展起来的。通过这些例子,作者表明查询的语义解释以及信息架构涉及规范维度,对气候危机和其他形式的环境破坏具有影响。本文提出了一个术语框架,该框架整合了环境影响评估、环境沟通、信息研究和关键算法研究的概念考虑,以阐明算法信息系统如何共同构成环境危害。本文进一步建议将环境影响评估扩展到包括算法危害,以便考虑责任和问责制如何在具有截然不同的条件和机会的不同行为者之间分配。

Algorithmically embodied emissions: the environmental harm of everyday life information in digital culture
This conceptual paper introduces the notion of algorithmically embodied emissions to highlight how everyday choices facilitated by commercial algorithmic information systems such as commercial search engines, social media and recommender systems contribute to the climate crisis and other forms of environmental destruction. The proposed concept is developed by integrating terminology from the fields of information studies, critical algorithm studies and environmental impact assessment, and by examining a strategic selection of examples. Through the examples, the authors show that semantic interpretation of queries as well as the information architecture involve normative dimensions with implications for the climate crisis and other forms of environmental destruction. The paper proposes a terminological framework that integrates conceptual considerations from environmental impact assessment, environmental communication, information studies and critical algorithm studies to articulate how algorithmic information systems are co-constitutive of environmental harm. The paper further suggest to extend environmental impact assessment to include algorithmic harms in order to take into account how responsibility and accountability are distributed among different actors with profoundly different conditions and opportunities to exercise them.
