What is good for business growth for startups and major tech companies often runs counter to what’s best for users' wellbeing and society at large. Tech companies want profit. Users want trustworthy content, a safe online environment, and a focus on wellbeing. Can't we have both? All Tech Is Human sets out to tackle this vexing issue of misaligned incentives. 

Moderated by GCT Co-Founder & CEO Matt Harrigan, the panel consisted of thought leaders in tech ethics, including Laurie Segall (Senior Technology Correspondent at CNN), Max Stossel (Head of Content and Storytelling at The Center for Humane Technology), Anya Kamenetz (Lead Education Blogger at NPR), and David Ryan Polgar (Co-Founder & Tech Ethicist at Funny as Tech).

Is it time that we left Facebook & Twitter? Can a person succeed without a social media presence? And is social media a communications platform with advertising, or an advertising platform with communication?
