Spotlight: The Three Rules of Humane Tech

<p>In our previous episode, we shared a presentation Tristan and Aza recently delivered to a group of influential technologists about the race happening in AI. In that talk, they introduced the Three Rules of Humane Technology. In this Spotlight episode, we’re taking a moment to explore these three rules more deeply in order to clarify what it means to be a responsible technologist in the age of AI.</p><p>Correction: Aza mentions infinite scroll being in the pockets of 5 billion people, implying that there are 5 billion smartphone users worldwide. The number of smartphone users worldwide is actually 6.8 billion now.</p><p> </p><p><strong>RECOMMENDED MEDIA </strong></p><p><a href="https://time.com/6246077/social-media-3d/">We Think in 3D.
