"What changes do technologies bring to the way we behave as individuals and as a society that might backfire their potential gains?"
Key takeaway from our launch by Daniela Pigosso, pointing to the fact that human-centered engineering has to think and act beyond adoption and acceptance.

How do we, as a technical university, shape and engage the societal narratives about technology? Core question for an observatory for human-centered engineering.
Another take away from our launch. Peter Vesborg warns against simplifications that prevents us from appreciating necessary tradeoffs.

What is our room for maneuver when we develop technology? Do we have agency? First key take away from our launch event yesterday with @adler-nissen.bsky.social from the National Center for AI in Society (CAISA).
Thanks to everyone who came by and made the day very special 🙏
