Technically Human is a podcast about ethics and technology where I ask what it means to be human in the age of tech. Each week, I interview industry leaders, thinkers, writers, and technologists and I ask them about how they understand the relationship between humans and the technologies we create. We discuss how we can build a better vision for technology, one that represents the best of our human values.

In this episode of "Technically Human," I speak with Chris Ategeka, the CEO of UCOT, the Center for the Unintended Consequences of Technology. Chris talks about what led him to build UCOT, what drives unethical tech, and how the destructive consequences in technological culture and products may be less unintended than willfully ignored. Chris and I talk about the relationship between diversity in tech culture on the one hand, and equity in tech products and outcomes on the other. Finally, Chris makes a case for why staying optimistic in this moment is not a choice--for him, it is an ethical mandate.
