🔍The chapter expands on my 2019 article "Digital Inequalities in the Age of Artificial Intelligence and Big Data", which is surprisingly well cited: doi.org/10.1002/hbe2...

📈 A lot has happened in the AI space since 2019, so the chapter includes much recent literature, incl. reflections on genAI.

🎯 My newest book chapter just dropped! "Social Inequalities and Artificial Intelligence: How Digital Inequality Scholarship Enhances Our Understanding" came out recently in the wonderful Routledge volume "Algorithms, Artificial Intelligence and Beyond" www.taylorfrancis.com/chapters/edi...

Nice to see that Google Scholar is still going strong after 20 years. While I'm not a big fan of the company behind it, Google Scholar is a very useful product that I've come to appreciate a lot over the years.

Based on 30 qualitative interviews and the literature on #loneliness, social capital, networked individualism and #neotribes, we investigate digital nomads' perceptions of loneliness and the role of social media as a coping tool.
November 11, 2024 at 2:33 PM
Our new paper "'Alone on the road': Loneliness among digital nomads and the use of social media to foster personal relationships" with C. Miguel, R. Perez-Vega and F. Majetić just came out #openaccess in Media, Culture & Society 🤗

⁉️ GPT-4 was less aligned and able to capture the evaluations of (ethnic) minority groups, particularly non-white men of all ages and non-white women 55+.

🤔The biggest deviations occured for sales-oriented and new/digital economy occupations, including jobs such as Chatbot Operator, Chatbot Conversation Trainer and Online Video Content Creator (see below outlier occupations for social value).
September 17, 2024 at 3:42 PM
📈Overall, the average scores between GPT-4 and the human respondents correlated strongly, both for prestige and social value (shown below). However, some occupations showed substantial deviations.
September 17, 2024 at 3:42 PM
📑We collected prestige and social value scors of 576 occupations and 4 non-occupational roles (> 2400 respondents). Using this data as the baseline, we compared the average human scores per occupation with GPT-4. GPT-4 showed little variance (see below).

🔎The human data is from extensive #surveys, documented in 2 articles published earlier this year. 1) "Occupational prestige and occupational social value in the United Kingdom: New indices for the modern British economy" in Research in Social Stratification and Mobility doi.org/10.1016/j.rs...

👩‍💻Aligning with emerging research that compares synthetic/LLM-generated data with human data, Pawel Gmyrek (ILO), Gemma Newlands (OII) and I investigate the performance of GPT-4 in capturing occupational perceptions in the UK, specifically #prestige and #social #value.

🔔 New week, new paper! Gemma Newlands and I recently published an article in the Journal of Business Research we are very proud of 🤗

📜 Our latest paper came out in RSSM! Gemma Newlands and I developed a comprehensive list of 576 occupation titles aligned with ISCO-08. We then collected prestige and social value scores from over 2400 respondents in the UK (> 300 ratings/occupation title). It's open access 🤗 doi.org/10.1016/j.rs...
