CTIC Book Talk with Orly Lobel

1.0 Substantive credits

The Equality Machine is a contrarian constructive response to the current techlash and fears of AI, automation, and datacation. Lobel envisions a more balanced path forward, one where we redirect digital technology for good. Much has been written about the challenges tech presents to equality and democracy. Lobel argues that while we cannot stop technological development, we can steer its course according to our most fundamental values. Already, digital technology frequently has a comparative advantage over humans in detecting discrimination, correcting historical exclusions, subverting long-standing stereotypes, and addressing the world’s thorniest problems: climate, poverty, injustice, literacy, accessibility, speech, health, and safety. The book oers vivid examples, new research, and stories of leaders from academia, policy, and industry—from labor markets to dating markets— that inspire to have skin in the tech game and restore human agency in a rapidly evolving articial reality.
