Thank you for taking time for being with us Katie, and we hope to see you soon again in Europe! πŸ’‘βœ¨

I tried Google's #Bard and OpenAI's #ChatGPT. Both performed well on very general stuff and popular media trivia.

Then I asked them to pretend to be a researcher like me and explain the differences between #superdiversity and #hyperdiversity.

Both understood that the concepts are related, but confused their definitions and origins entirely.

I have a chapter on 'Superdiversity & the Everyday' in the new Oxford Handbook of Superdiversity. OPEN ACCESS. Its a fantatstic collection-explores processes of diversification & the complex, emergent social configurations now superseding prior forms of diversity in societies around the world.

The #Oxford Handbook of #Superdiversity also brings together chapters that emphasize interdisciplinary case studies and examples of the social implications of superdiversity in different cities and contexts around the globe.
The thirty-three chapters in this book are arranged in five sections: Disciplinary Developments; Methodological Reflections; Spaces and Scales; Power and Politics; and Conceptual Encounters.

Old immigration hubs and new ones worldwide have experienced rapid and increasing movements of people from more varied national, ethnic, linguistic, and religious backgrounds. These movements have emerged along with a diversification of migration channels and legal statuses. In concurrent but differing ways, these migration-driven trends profoundly transform societies in complex ways spanning social, demographic, cultural, economic, and political structures.
