What Tech Needs to Do Better in 2020, According to the People Who Build It
Voter registration, thoughtful regulation, replaceable batteries, and more — here are the solutions for a better tomorrow, today
At OneZero, we believe in a better tomorrow. Ahead of the new year, we asked leaders in the tech industry — engineers, activists, venture capitalists, and writers — one simple question: How can we make the world better in 2020?
Here are their answers.
Leslie Miley, Former CTO, Obama Foundation
“Tech needs to begin to take responsibility for the spread and amplification of demonstrable hateful and harmful content and work in a transparent way to eliminate it from their platforms.”
Jessica Powell, Former Google VP and Author of The Big Disruption
“Tech people aren’t wrong to think that the media is sometimes unfair. But that doesn’t mean that all negative stories are wrong or are driven by an anti-tech agenda. Instead of spending so much energy decrying media bias against tech — which seems to dominate a lot of my Twitter feed — we should do better as an industry and listen to people’s concerns.”
