Our livestream series also touches upon community-building, education, and careers. These three areas work towards a more cohesive Responsible Tech ecosystem that promotes knowledge-sharing and collaboration, is able to tackle complex tech & society issues while moving at the speed of tech, and elevates new voices into the field.

RESPONSIBLE TECH

Holding the Bigger Context - and the Work in Front of Us

What can mission-driven organizations can teach us about navigating broader responsibilities while getting things done? 

As organizations race to adopt AI, leaders face a familiar polarity: how do we move quickly, experiment, and deliver meaningful results while also considering the broader consequences of the technology we're putting into the world? Innovation and responsibility are often treated as competing priorities, but both are essential to long-term success. Building on an earlier exploration of this polarity, this article shifts from understanding the tension to managing it in practice. Mission-driven organizations have long balanced ambitions for systemic change with the immediate needs of the people they serve, and their experiences offer valuable lessons.

By drawing on practical frameworks, collaborative methods, and organizational routines, leaders can make more thoughtful decisions and build habits that support both responsible innovation and forward momentum.

Managing the Machine: Putting People at the Center of AI with Paula Goldman

As artificial intelligence advances rapidly from automation to autonomous agents, organizations face a critical turning point: how to harness the immense potential of AI while safeguarding trust, human agency, and societal wellbeing. 

Join All Tech Is Human on Thursday, November 19 at 1:00 PM ET for a livestream conversation with Paula Goldman, Salesforce’s first-ever Chief Ethical and Humane Use Officer. This discussion will be moderated by All Tech Is Human Founder and President David Ryan Polgar. Paula is the author of the newly released book, Manage the Machine: How to Harness Human-AI Collaboration at Work. We’ll be moving beyond the hype to discuss ways of integrating AI into the workplace responsibly. When should we delegate tasks to AI? When should human judgement take the lead? 

Whether you are a business leader, tech policy advocate, or RAI practitioner navigating the evolving AI landscape, we hope you can join this engaging discussion on building a human-centered AI future. (The conversation will be recorded, and all registrants will be sent the recording directly following the livestream.)
