Dear all,

In this *Backchannels* post
<https://4sonline.org/news_manager.php?page=32670>, *Guilherme Cavalcante
Silva* shows how technological solutionism in recent AI developments in
Brazil is crucially affected by the question of dependency. He suggests
that to deal with technology policy in peripheries, STS scholars need to
address the social constitution of the very notion of development and
underdevelopment.
