Avec @MJCatoir nous venons de clore un projet de recherche initié en 2018, à l'issue de @EthicsByDesign. Un projet industriel, avec un partenaire TelCo et son équipe d'innovation. Le sujet ? La circulation des émotions dans la maison connectée #smarthome
Il y a qté de tech auj'hui qui détectent/capturent des émotions #AffectiveComputing. Et presque autant d'entreprises qui imaginent des business model pour valoriser les data émotionnelles. Dans un environnement fortement concurrentiel, comment résister à de telles tendances ?
Les enjeux sont nombreux : on parle de placer dans le foyer, dans la famille, des techno numériques capables de reconnaitre, simuler et potentiellement orienter des émotions humaines. Quelle utilité sociale ? Quels effets de bord en cas d'adoption massive ?
I found out that my mother is being radicalized by Chinese Wechat & local Chinese American groups in California to either not vote at all or vote for Trump. During this quarantine she has a lot of time at home and she's been seeing a lot of misinfo
Everything she has said is the almost WORD FOR WORD the same things that I have heard other Chinese Americans say in my networks.
Their main issue is that the “next generation” won’t benefit from their hard work and that their children or grandchildren will fall behind if Democrats are in control cuz they’ll implement things like affirmative action & equality measures.
1. I’m so grateful to @tristanharris @aza being vulnerable enough to suggest a new field to study human + tech. It just goes to show there’s tons of confusion around the role of research & insights in industry - which is the topic of my upcoming talk at @MindtheProduct.
2. @zeynep is right about the willful blindness of industry tech & @BostonJoan have pointed to entire field of STS - BUT i have sympathy for @tristanharris @aza cuz i see tons of confusion on several fronts between industry & academia that can possibly make even well meaning...
3. ... tech folks feel like a new area of study is needed. One of the big problems is how research is manifested in industry under confusing fields of UX, CX, design research -as @lifewinning noted there is def a trend with throwing an X in industry to make a field sound TOUGH
