Computational Liberal Arts (CLA) Workshop on IronHacks in the Age of Artificial Intelligence

IronHacks is about using the digital traces of human actions and interactions on and with digital platforms for developing and testing hypotheses related to individuals, groups, crowds, collectives, as well as artifacts and platform architecture (Brunswicker et al., 2018). IronHacks employs randomized controlled experiments as it has long been considered the gold standard of scientific research (Recker, 2013). IronHacks combines machine-learning with large-scale digital experiments to offer completely new ways of developing and testing theory. To enable experimental research on online communities of various kinds, IronHacks emerged as a digital platform for conducting experiments that are controlled by researchers themselves, thus enabling us to assess various treatment effects and reap the digital trace data. While conducting digital experiments with customized infrastructure design opens up opportunities for research on online communities, there is an increasing need for scholars to pool resources to entangle interesting research problems.  there are also many challenges, such as participation incentives.
