‘Scalability’ – the ability to grow efficiently, generally through various forms of standardisation – is the dominant approach to innovation in the technology sector. At the same time, AI/ML designers and developers are increasing turning their attention to issues of access and inclusion, with calls for ‘ubiquitous accessibility’. Drawing on perspectives from feminist STS, queer theory, and critical disability theory, we examine the meeting of ‘access’ and ‘scalability’. We ask what do decisions about ‘accessible design’ reveal about the politics of disability? What are the stakes of transferring ‘universal design’ from physical to digital infrastructures? What futures are being encoded, enacted, and scaled in data-driven technologies ranging from personal devices to platform-based infrastructure? We argue that concepts like ‘personalization’ and ‘optimization’ take shape in what Alondra Nelson (2008) calls ‘the interplay of macro-, meso-, and micro-level processes’ and that they must be radically reimagined.
