“…This meaning making activity is inherently a social process, and is influenced by the cultural perspectives and values of the relevant stakeholders. While there is an increasingly broad amount of data collected (particularly behavioral and social data), and increasingly an ethos of data interoperability and reuse (Ribes & Bowker, 2009) among scientists, assessment, understanding and selection of data still remains a vital, ill‐understood step in the development of AI and data‐intensive modeling and analysis in all its variety of definitions (Slota, Fleischmann, et al, 2020; Slota, Hoffman, et al, 2020). While there are many efforts to encourage and manage interoperability and data assessment (Gudivada et al, 2017; Janssen et al, 2014; Ribes & Bowker, 2009; Salminen & Pallai, 2007), data collection often takes place outside of the context of modeling or AI work, and a necessary prior step in undertaking this work is in the discovery and assessment of resources—be they data, tools, or even domains where their work might find application (Slota, Fleischmann, et al, 2020; Slota, Hoffman, et al, 2020).…”
