How do we get better at designing ethical and responsible digital solutions?

Every time you open a browser or look at your mobile phone, you are whisked away into a world of digital services that harvest your data, manipulate your choices, and penetrate deep into your brain to get you to click some more advertisements. For many years, large technology companies such as Google, Facebook and Amazon have had free rein to design solutions which on the surface have been technological marvels, but which underneath the surface have used digital technologies to exploit human weaknesses. The results have shown themselves as digital addiction, fake news, filter bubbles, monopoly markets, weakened innovation power, data abuse, surveillance and automated racism and misogyny. We need a new paradigm for our digital world, and it's not just about the big tech companies, it's about how companies in general design digital products. Therefore, we need a new ethical approach to digital design – both at the small startup as well as the large companies and not least in the public sector. But how do you do ethical digital design? You will get the answer to that in this lecture with Peter Svarre, who has worked for a year together with the Danish Design Center to develop the tool The Digital Ethical Compass, which precisely helps companies to think ethics into their digital solutions. In addition, Peter is the author of the book Digital Ethics, which was published in autumn 2022. Who is it for? -Business managers - Designers and UX designers - Product managers/project managers - Data scientists or others who work with automation and algorithms
