About the workshop
As the technology industry strives to build intelligence through data, what does it mean for a "smart" system to be not just technically reliable or theoretically accurate, but trustworthy in practice?
Furthermore, at a time where being first-to-market seems to outweigh ethical considerations, how can designers, researchers, and technologists incorporate goals such as privacy, security, and transparency into their work? What barriers do they face in designing such massively complex systems, what successful strategies are they employing today, and what work do we need for the future?
Underexposed brings together design and technology practitioners to have hard conversations at the intersection of human-centered thinking, ethics, and computing. This year the event will also feature an open evening session for members of the public to join in the conversation.

The workshop portion of the event is by invitation only and is at capacity. If you are a designer, a technologist, or a researcher working on issues of human-centered privacy and security and are seeking an invitation, please reach out to [email protected].
