Nathaniel Schooler, Kim-Adele Randall and Nishadi Ranasinghe discussed all things tech with Sharena Rice PHD- a neuroscientist, cybernetician and storyteller with a PhD in neuroscience from the University of Michigan.
According to Sharena Rice PHD, tech for good is transformative because it has the potential to help people be their best selves. She believes that if we demand that companies create products with this goal in mind, we can see a world where technology helps us instead of hinders us. Sharena sees potential for technology to improve our lives in many ways, but she is also quick to point out that if any one of the foundations that tech is built on (philosophy, science, and technology) is shaky, and the whole system falls apart. This is why she believes it’s important that we have a clear vision for how we want tech to improve our lives before allowing it to become a part of our everyday lives. Only by doing this can we avoid the pitfalls of tech addiction and ensure that tech is used for good.
