The Future of the Humanities @ Google
October 15, 2020 @ 8:30 am - 3:00 pm
Wendy is invited to this closed conference
This series of round table discussions builds on Google’s history of engagement with academia, a history that started with the company’s founders. We sense a critical moment for modern democracy and for the humanist values at the core of our business. Although Google is a technology company, many of the biggest challenges we face are non-technical, motivating this outreach to learn from and collaborate with academic leaders in the Humanities.
The goal of these working sessions is to bring academics into conversation with researchers and practitioners at Google to better understand the increasingly complex landscape at the intersection of ethics, privacy, identity, and technology. By building a venue for conversation across institutional boundaries, we hope to find points of connection that will enable us to make change together.
