Abstract
Conversational interfaces (CIs) enabled by artificial intelligence (AI) technologies promise to reconfigure our relationship with computers through human speech and language as a more natural form of human-machine communication. Using the philosophy of technopersons, the text explores how CIs are promoted by digital platforms to advance a reconfiguration of the social domain upon the possibilities presented by AI technologies for the expansion of their power. This reconfiguration also involves changes into human language and the associated development of technoinequalities. In other words, inequalities reinforced, facilitated and amplified by technology. Four areas of technoinequality associated with the development of CI are identified in terms of linguistic diversity, gender equality, labour precarity and exploitation, and environmental sustainability.
