Date and timeWed, September 28, 2022, 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM EDT LocationOnline About this eventHow do you find mentorship in the nascent Responsible Tech ecosystem? Whether you are looking to expand your career as a public interest technologist, Trust & Safety professional, Responsible AI researcher, or at the intersection of tech & democracy (reducing hate speech, misinformation, disinformation), it is often difficult to understand the landscape, job titles, skills required, and make relationships with individuals who can assist you in your career growth. All Tech Is Human is here to help! Our non-profit is committed to connecting and expanding the nascent Responsible Tech ecosystem, with one of our core activities focused on diversifying the traditional tech pipeline with more backgrounds , disciplines, and lived experiences. The future of technology is the future of democracy and the human condition, so it behooves us to have a multidisciplinary pipeline that can best tackle thorny tech & society issues. All Tech Is Human is a non-profit committed to connecting and expanding the Responsible Tech ecosystem so we can co-create a better tech future. We do this through a variety of activities focused around three key areas: multi-stakeholder convening & community-building, multidisciplinary education, and diversifying the pipeline with more backgrounds and lived experiences. Our organization has a large community Slack group, regular summits & mixers, a mentorship program, university ambassadors program, open working groups that develop reports, office hours, a job board, and our Responsible Tech Guide. You can see all of our projects here. Our organization also just launched a Responsible Tech Talent Pool. Our most recent Responsible Tech Mentorship cohort had 180 participants (135 mentees, 45 mentors) and we will soon be opening up our Fall mentorship cohort. If interested, you can sign-up for our waiting list to be notified when the applications open up. Our mentorship program is entirely free. All Tech Is Human is supported by the Patrick J. McGovern Foundation, Ford Foundation, and other key foundations that allow us to serve this important role. Read an overview about All Tech Is Human here.

SPECIAL GUESTS FOR THIS LIVESTREAM Sneha Deo, Responsible AI Lead at Microsoft "I love translating human problems into the language of math so that we can use AI to drive the right solutions for the broadest and deepest-felt pain points. I'm currently a PM at Microsoft, where I drive Responsible AI efforts for the Experiences + Devices organization. I'm also a contributor to the Montreal AI Ethics Institute and advisor to the AI Policy Exchange Research Network. Building meaningful products starts with deep curiosity about the human condition. I've found I'm better able to feed that curiosity when I break out of the tech bubble, so I've found complementary roles in non-profit leadership. I've worked on increasing voter turnout and civic engagement for South Asians in Washington State with SAAT-WA, improving oversight of policing practices in San Francisco with the League of Women Voters SF, and addressing access and equity in education on the board of the Hatch School, a new independent school in Seattle."

Another is mentoring. Over the last 6 months I've been able to combine these passions through the All Tech Is Human 'Responsible Tech Mentorship Program', and it has been incredibly rewarding! For our final session, I interviewed Patrick McAndrew, Sara Filipcic, and Gamithra Marga about their insights, advice, and vision for creating a better and more positive tech future.

Patrick McAndrew is an actor, writer, and podcast producer based in New York City. He is particularly interested in using theatre, film, and media as a gateway to learning about the Internet, technology, and social media's influence on our decisions, habits, and lifestyles. His brand-new musical, The Startup, explores the influence that Big Tech has on our world today. Sara Filipcic is the founder of Be Human(e) and a researcher in Web3/Education. BeHuman(e) is a gamified platform that helps students develop awareness and management techniques for healthier habits when using technology. Gamithra Marga is a security engineer at an Icelandic cybersecurity company by day, and the founder of TVÍK, an AI-powered language learning platform, by night. She is trying to figure out what kind of impact new technologies have on the way we live and think, and how to find systematic approaches to ensuring that impact remains positive. https://youtu.be/hOWwv__GDpY #responsibletech #techresponsibility #techethics #tethics #AllTechIsHuman #mentoring #mentorshipprogram #future #futurist #panel #paneldiscussion #technology #education #cybersecurity #learning #ai #tech #TheStartup #BeHumane  If you find yourself asking 'WTF is Web 3?' this video is for you!

With conscious consumers ditching fast fashion IRL, digital fashion offers brands a HUGE new opportunity - not just to add revenue streams, but also to build community like never before. From matching up-and-coming digital designers with brands for imaginative collaborations, to introducing NFTs into their already thriving economy, IMVU - the world’s largest social metaverse platform with 1M+ daily active users - are at the forefront of this growth market.
