We are organizing a workshop on Algorithmic Collective Action at NeurIPS this year. As AI continues to concentrate power, we will meet in San Diego (Dec 6 or 7) for critical conversations on user coordination, labor, data protection, and community advocacy. Submissions due August 22. #NeurIPS2025

The image is titled Workshop on Algorithmic Collective Action.

The abstract reads:

The study of “collective action” has a long history in Economics and Sociology as a way for groups of people to impact markets and the political arena (Olson 1965; Marwell and Oliver 1993). Algorithmic Collective Action (ACA) is the study of such coordination strategies in algorithmically-mediated sociotechnical systems. Our workshop offers a platform to discuss new ideas and help define the foundational research directions for the emerging topic through interdisciplinary discussions between ML researchers, scholars from the social sciences, community stakeholders and advocates.
