Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

How can generative AI’s entanglement with climate crisis be made visible? This question catalyzed a research-creational intervention, called X-gram, that emblematizes this paper’s theoretical contribution, a concept I call techsposure. Combining the words “technology” and “exposure,” techsposure is a method by which a technology’s affordances are made to expose its own material, infrastructural, environmental, or climate consequences. Put another way, techsposure occurs when tech tells on itself in a particularly poetically-just kind of way. Broadly, this article argues that research-creational interventions are urgently required ethical tools in our scholarly toolkits. They equip us to creatively destabilize Big Tech’s charting of bleak climate futures and to engage audiences in imagining, as Natalie Loveless (2019) puts it, how the world could be organized differently.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
