By looking at workers\u2019 life trajectories rather than only their immediate labour position, we show how platforms draw on a workforce already made precarious by migration regimes and blocked career paths. Gig work can provide fast income in moments of crisis, enable \u201csideways moves\u201d when promised futures fail, and offer narratives of independence that temporarily mask insecurity and deskilling.\r\n\r\nFor organisers, this matters.

This narrative, while true, conflicts with the observation that data centres are also being constructed en masse in wealthy regions with strong labour movements, such as the Nordic countries. Framings of data centres here have framed their construction as desirable for digital economies, while also spurring job growth in construction. Negative externalities are framed as manageable, such as by relying on renewable energy, or by reusing excess heat.\r\n\r\nI make the argument that the core logic driving the data center boom in the age of the generative AI bubble \u2014\u00a0rather than job creation or digitisation \u2014 is to attempt to accumulate capital through charging or taxing fictitious capital circulating within Big Tech. The difference between the accumulation strategy in the Nordics and elsewhere is rather a question of how strong labour movements are able to both offset negative externalities and distribute the gains from this \u201ccasino\u201d domestically.

Acts of resistance and escape risk leaving in place the systemic drive for AI to grow and expand across all aspects of society, merely fending off the inevitable, perhaps for just a short period of time. The pursuit of anti-AI objectives through the state - either taming AI, or dismantling it altogether - are themselves at risk of embracing the somewhat naive hope that perhaps the capitalist state might save us. Yet, whilst there are undoubtedly limitations on our ability to struggle against AI, history nevertheless tells us that without struggle the introduction of this next capitalist technology of exploitation and control will be worse than it would be otherwise; and, anyway, and perhaps reassuringly, there is no possibility of a capitalism without opposition.

Chips require materials that must be extracted and fabrication complexity and cost seems only feasible at scales massive capital enable. \r\n\r\nComputing as currently conceived may be inseparable from these systems. But what if we started from different premises? Sufficiency over growth, longevity over obsolescence, shared infrastructure over disposable devices? What would we build differently, and what should we give up?\r\n\r\nThis workshop welcomes anyone unwilling to accept technological determinism and solutionism. We particularly encourage those in climate justice, de-colonial work and degrowth who sense hardware is part of the problem and are looking for frameworks for thinking about it.\r\n\r\nFormat: framing presentation (10 min), small-group discussion (50 min), synthesis (30 min).
