Description

We are living our lives more and more online, outsourcing our thinking to Artificial Intelligence (AI) and being sucked into digital systems designed to keep us enthralled, but how are the hidden costs of these systems and why should we all be more considerate of the impacts that they are having on our lives, and the planet? In this episode, UX designer Thorston Jonas exposes many of the insidious ways digital technologies are affecting us.

Thorsten is Sustainable UX and Responsible AI advocate, Keynote Speaker and Founder of the SUX Network and SUX Academy. He is guiding and teaching designers and product people, teams and companies in crafting sustainable, responsible and ethical digital products and using AI responsibly. Thorsten is co-author of the W3C Sustainable Web Design Guidelines and is the host of the SUX Podcast. His passion for the outdoors and mountaineering drives his commitment to making sustainability a fundamental aspect of design and digital product building and he believes that it is our first responsibility to create digital products and experiences that do not harm other beings or the planet.
