For close to 60 years, ACM SIGMIS Computers and People Research (CPR) conference has engaged the academic and practitioner communities in understanding issues pertaining to the intersection of information technology (IT) and people. From its roots in the studies of the IT workforce, CPR has broadened its focus to investigate all aspects of this important and complex relationship.
The exponential progress of technology has created the need to address bias and bias mitigation in emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Metaverse, Datafication, Quantum Computing. While these technologies are transformative, they can perpetuate social inequalities. Effective methods for measuring and mitigating algorithmic bias are crucial, as well as promoting the use of diverse and inclusive data sets. Furthermore, the evolving field of IT poses challenges and opportunities for the workforce, requiring identification of emerging skill sets and strategies for creating inclusive work environments. Research should also focus on understanding the ethical implications and developing policies for a just transition. How can we ensure a fair and inclusive integration of emerging technologies in various domains while mitigating bias and empowering the workforce?
SIGMIS CPR 2024 calls for attention and concerted research in three key areas, including: (1) Addressing issues of bias and bias mitigation in emerging technologies; (2) Embracing alternative approaches in conducting IS research; (3) New challenges and opportunities facing the IT workforce.
