Dear colleagues,

I am pleased to announce the call for papers for the INDL-North America Symposium on Labor and Artificial Intelligence.

Theme: "Workers Building, Using, and Resisting AI" This inaugural symposium highlights the essential role of labor not only in creating AI models but also in shaping how those technologies transform work, maintaining AI infrastructure, and developing strategies to navigate or resist AI-driven change.

We invite contributions from established and early-career academic researchers (including graduate students), labor organizers and practitioners, and professionals engaged with the theme.

Funding: We are pleased to offer a limited number of scholarships for graduate students, non-academics, and independent scholars, funded by Yale’s MacMillan Center.
