🤖 The supply chain capitalism of AI

This paper offers a journey through mines, semiconductor manufacturers, data centres, technological firms, data labelling factories and e-waste dumps by illustrating the complex, diverse, opaque and global structure of the supply chain of AI. Then, the paper moves
into illuminating a case study drawn from three months of fieldwork on data centres in Mexico, revealing that algorithmic harms go beyond code pitfalls.
