Data work as a career? Professionalizing content moderation in Germany
Behind the glossy veneer of AI lies a hidden workforce of data workers who form the backbone of this technological revolution. In this part of the Data Workers` Inquiry Speakers Series, workers in Germany talk about their career in data work.
The Data Workers’ Inquiry is a community-based research project in which data workers conduct research in their workplaces. In this pioneering initiative led by Weizenbaum Researcher Milagros Miceli and her team, data workers have produced a compelling array of firsthand accounts – from documentaries, to magazines, podcasts, essays and animations – which will serve as a repository for journalists, researchers, policymakers, as well as other data workers.
