I'm thrilled to speak on the Dogma of Inclusion with @alexhaagaard and Florence Okoye at @hmntycntrd's #CriticalUX mini-conference March 3rd @ 10am PT. You can still sign up to attend live or watch the recording - all panels look stellar! hmntycntrd.com/the-hmntycntrd…

This will be amazing - I'm excited to dive into what meaningful "inclusion" and equity work in design looks like with Florence and Alex

@davidthewid Are there any sorts of limitations / preferences as to which type of team?

Is your team/company interested in talking and thinking about Responsible AI more? We're running a study on a *fun* way of helping teams discuss AI harm. We'll run a 1.5 hr event and tailor it to your team or product context, for free! DM/reply if interested, & RTs appreciated!

@estherykang building here, a provocation from me: when being "inclusive" or using "participatory" approaches: are we including people in the process of their own exploitation? are we asking them to participate in a status quo that's actively harming them? #criticalUX twitter.com/justinthrelkel…

Beyond ad blockers, there's a world of possible browser tools to empower users: combatting dark patterns, manipulative algorithmic recommendations, deceptive political emails… I think technologists have a moral obligation to build such tools even without clear business models.

@tamigraph @albanvillamil @azraism Oooh excited to hear you speak!
