This talk delves into the dichotomy of technology, examining its dual nature and exploring the essence of responsible tech design. It emphasizes that while technology can perform magical feats, it should always be tethered to a purpose that contributes to a better world for all.
Operating without clear ethical guidelines can lead to the abuse and misuse of technology, resulting in negative implications on health, society, and the environment. By recognizing the existence of a “no” in technology, we acknowledge the imperative need for strong ethical frameworks, user-centric design, and a focus on digital wellbeing.
The talk aims to inspire designers, researchers, and technologists to adopt a holistic approach to technology creation, one that embraces both innovation and responsibility. In doing so, we can prioritize the wellbeing of all individuals and contribute towards building a better, more human-centered digital future.
