Ethical + Responsible Technologies

Advances in technologies with decision-making capabilities operating in human affairs without human supervision have created massive opportunities for companies to leverage data and algorithmic systems solutions at scale.

But many algorithmic technologies products and services also carry immense risks to adversely influence and disrupt society and human activities—including algorithmic bias and discrimination, privacy and consent infringements, weaponized mis- and disinformation and mass social manipulation, equitability and fairness, explainability and trust, and surveillance capitalism.

We’re experts in the psycho-social underpinnings and real-world applications and consequences of ethical behavior and responsibility.

We consult to technology companies and policymakers to identify and address a spectrum of complex ethical and psycho-social risks and responsibilities in design and development before downstream problems surface.

We also advise corporate leaders in integrating psychologically sophisticated ethical technology risk awareness and mitigation into institutional culture and operations, as well as developing profitable and socially responsible policies and practices.
