Nice sentence:
- (探討技術(shù)的兩面性)Technology has the power to either mitigate or intensify problematic patterns of exclusion, with regard to gender, race, sexuality, geography, and ability. while some digital technologies exacerbate harrassment, for example, providing potential perpetrators with new opportunities and methods of abuse technology can also be a part of the solution, providing virtual spaces for empathy-building and harnessing alogrithms that promote prosocial conduct.
- (技術(shù)只是工具)Technology is merely a tool that " can nudge change" when made ethical by design. As such, the idea of equality must be systematically prioritized in the development and implementation of new technologies. How poor outcomes often arise not from overt malice but rather when technologies either competently replicate societal shortcomings or are incompetently implemented.
- There are always trade-offs when new technologies ae deployed. Fairness and equality often come at social costs, and technology can serve both to support and to surveil, to heal and to harm, to detect and to conceal, to equalize and to exclude. For exmaple, those technologies, designed to uncover workplace harassment, can also chill speech and invade privacy. Despite these tensions, we should eschew pessimitically rejecting innovations that are presumed to be promatic. Because experimentation and failure are important steps in the march toward technological equity. That is why we ought to focus not no whether an algorithem is flowed but on whether it is safer, fairer, and more unbiased than ever.
- (政府應(yīng)該加強(qiáng)對(duì)數(shù)據(jù)的監(jiān)管)To attain equality through technology, the government ought to promote legislation that conceives of consumer data as a shared resource that should be made accessible for nonprofit resarch. And more government funds would be invested into ensuring that consumer data capture underrepresented demographics and the creation of progressive public-private infrastructure and governance systems to manage and oversee the deployment of new technology. As same as new pharmaceuticals, new algorithms would benefit from more comprehensive regulations.
