About

Anubha Singh’s research critically examines the evolving relationship between humans and automation, challenging the Silicon Valley dream of a workerless future. Her work centers on the sociology of artificial intelligence, labor studies, and the hidden human labor that sustains autonomous systems. In her highly cited 2022 paper, “Outsourcing Artificial Intelligence: Responding to the Reassertion of the Human Element into Automation,” Singh reveals how technological limitations in robotics and AI force a reassertion of human skills—from data labeling to error correction—to bridge gaps in supposedly self-sufficient systems. This contribution has garnered 9 citations, establishing her as a key voice in debates on AI ethics and the future of work. By exposing the invisible workforce behind automation, Singh’s research offers a vital corrective to narratives of technological inevitability, urging scholars and policymakers to reckon with the enduring centrality of human labor in an age of intelligent machines. Her work is essential reading for anyone studying the sociotechnical realities of AI deployment.
