It was a pleasure to participate in this interdisciplinary panel on tech policy. Some common themes we discussed: technological solutionism/technological innovation approaches and evidence-based processes in tech policymaking #PSA25 #politicalstudies #STS #techpolicy @techpolicy.bsky.social
And we're on! Our first panel today has already discussed how AI has been used in healthcare and government, and secure concerns!
