Spotlight: The Three Rules of Humane Tech

In our previous episode, we shared a presentation Tristan and Aza
recently delivered to a group of influential technologists about
the race happening in AI. In that talk, they introduced the Three
Rules of Humane Technology. In this Spotlight episode, we’re
taking a moment to explore these three rules more deeply in order
to clarify what it means to be a responsible technologist in the
age of AI.


Correction: Aza mentions infinite scroll being in the pockets of
5 billion people, implying that there are 5 billion smartphone
users worldwide. The number of smartphone users worldwide is
actually 6.8 billion now.
