We are thrilled that you will be joining All Tech Is Human’s Responsible Tech Summit, which is our annual marquee gathering bringing together 265 individuals across civil society, government, industry, and academia who are focused on tackling thorny tech & society issues. The Responsible Tech Summit has cultivated a conducive environment for surfacing important values, tensions, tradeoffs, and best practices.
This year’s theme centers humanity in our tech future. All stage activity focuses on ensuring that social media and other emerging technologies are designed, developed, and deployed with intention and consideration for individual and societal well-being.
Our panel themes include:
- The role of agency and collective action in shaping our tech future
- Prosocial design
- AI governance
- AI companions and chatbots
Our organization spends a considerable amount of time curating an ideal mix of backgrounds among participants for the Responsible Tech Summit. There will be academics, artists, Trust & Safety professionals, org leaders, Responsible AI practitioners, child safety advocates, and everyone in between. This mix is entirely by design, as complex tech & society issues require broad participation from a wide variety of backgrounds, disciplines, and perspectives.
Confirmed speakers for the Responsible Tech Summit include Dr. Allison Scott (CEO of the Kapor Foundation), Katy Knight (President and Executive Director of Siegel Family Endowment), Amba Kak (Co-Executive Director at AI Now Institute), Bilva Chandra (AI Ethics and Safety Manager at Google Deepmind), Sam Gregory (Executive Director at WITNESS), Trisha Prabu (Founder & CEO of ReThink), Kim Malfacini (Product Policy at OpenAI), John Hearty (VP of AI Governance at Mastercard), Ryn Linthicum (Head of User Wellbeing at Anthropic), Yacine Jernite (Head of Machine Learning and Society at Hugging Face), and more to be annonced shortly.
The Responsible Tech Summit is made possible through our sponsors, along with the general support our non-profit organization receives from the Patrick J. McGovern Foundation, Siegel Family Endowment, and more. All proceeds from the summit go towards our numerous programming activities to strengthen the Responsible Tech ecosystem, such as our large Slack community (13k members across 112 countries), resources such as our Responsible Tech Guide, our mentorship program, our bi-monthly livestream series, our Responsible Tech Job Board, and gatherings in NYC, DC, SF, and London.
