David J. Gunkel (born September 9, 1962) is an American academic and Presidential Teaching Professor of Communication Studies at Northern Illinois University.[1] He teaches courses in web design and programming, information and communication technology (ICT), and cyberculture.

Gunkel has published research and provided media commentary on the topics of machine ethics, the digital divide, telematic technologies, new media, Slavoj Žižek, as well as various aspects of internet culture and cyberculture.

He is the author over a dozen books. His first book, Hacking Cyberspace (2001),[3] examines the metaphors applied to new technologies, and how those metaphors inform, shape, and drive the implementation of the technology in question. His second book, Thinking Otherwise: Philosophy, Communication, Technology (2007),[4] investigates the unique quandaries, complications, and possibilities introduced by a form of 'otherness' that veils, through technology, the identity of the 'Other.' The Machine Question: Critical Perspectives on AI, Robots and Ethics (2012)[5] which examines whether and to what extent intelligent and autonomous machines of our own making can be considered to have legitimate moral responsibilities and any legitimate claim to moral consideration. This book won "best book of the year" from the National Communication Association's (NCA) Communication Ethics Division.[citation needed]

Another piece on print culture and the transition to an electronic medium and culture titled What's the Matter with Books?[6] has been cited in numerous articles on print culture and the digital revolution.
