The Technically Human Podcast - A podcast by Deb Donig

In this episode of "Technically Human," I speak with Chris Ategeka, the CEO of UCOT, the Center for the Unintended Consequences of Technology. Chris talks about what led him to build UCOT, what drives unethical tech, and how the destructive consequences in technological culture and products may be less unintended than willfully ignored. Chris and I talk about the relationship between diversity in tech culture on the one hand, and equity in tech products and outcomes on the other. Finally, Chris makes a case for why staying optimistic in this moment is not a choice--for him, it is an ethical mandate.
