A Future So Bright
We have been underselling the future. In fact, the future will be neither dystopia nor utopia (which is an actively harmful dichotomy) — it will be what we do the work to make it. And the best way to the brightest future is to focus on what we CAN do, and make sure we are working to get there.
Tech Stewardship
What is tech stewardship? A professional identity, orientation and practice. As tech stewards, we continuously discuss, refine and imagine new ways to shape technology for the benefit of all.
The Age of AI
Not since the Age of Reason have we re-envisioned our approach to economics, order, security, and even knowledge itself. Now, the Age of AI is changing nearly everything about how we navigate the world — and what it means to be human.
The Tech Humanist
The Tech Humanist started out as a manifesto, became a book, then a livestreamed show, and then a podcast. Kate O’Neill started it but a team and the community keeps it going. It’s been a movement, really. This community is about channeling the best of our human selves to develop the best technological solutions for all of us.
Your Undivided Attention
Your Undivided Attention explores the incredible power that technology has over our lives — and how we can use it to catalyze a humane future.
Design Justice
An exploration of how design might be led by marginalized communities, dismantle structural inequality, and advance collective liberation and ecological survival.
Coded Bias
CODED BIAS explores the fallout of MIT Media Lab researcher Joy Buolamwini’s discovery that facial recognition does not see dark-skinned faces accurately, and her journey to push for the first-ever legislation in the U.S. to govern against bias in the algorithms that impact us all.
The Age of Surveillance
The challenges to humanity posed by the digital future, the first detailed examination of the unprecedented form of power called "surveillance capitalism," and the quest by powerful corporations to predict and control our behavior.
