What is Humane Technology?

Humane technology is a concept to empower ethical management of technology, align tech with human values, and reject the current exploitation of tech users.

It is no longer enough to adapt humanly as technologies transform our world. The challenge is to re-imagine technology for a more humane world, and we believe humanities-inspired research will be vital to realizing the potential of this shift.

Ethics of AI

In an age of rapid technological innovations and developments, chief among them the rise of artificial intelligence and generative AI tools, higher education institutions have a responsibility to critically assess and evaluate the ethics and impacts of these new technologies. 

Digital Humanities at ASU

Digital humanities (DH), previously also known as humanities computing, has a long legacy rooted in literary and linguistic computing, dating back to the punch-card machinery of the 1950s. Today, DH not only offers an expanded repertoire of research methodologies for undertaking traditional humanities scholarship, but can also equip humanities scholars with the technological literacy necessary to grapple with the existential question raised by the rapid acceleration of technology.
