Dibyendu Mishra

I am a tech and society researcher broadly interested in the political economy of technological production, the socio-political implications of civic interest technologies and developing substantive ways to account for them. More recently I completed my research masters from the Department of Computing and Information Science at Cornell University where I investigated questions on the mutual shaping of AI, work and organisations, especially in moments of crises along with the relational and moral work of building and maintaining ‘Responsible AI’ infrastructures. These were shaped by methods and theories from Science and Technology Studies (STS) and Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW).

In the past, I used to work as a data scientist/AI engineer for a government agency in India building decision support systems and conducting risk and fairness analysis for rural infrastructures and livelihoods programs. Prior to that, I was computational social science researcher engrossed in the world of political social media, exploring disinformation campaigns and influencer networks. You can find an export of my work in the publications section and contact me through my socials or email below!
