À propos du livre
Human inventiveness has been transforming our lives for Millenia. On average, people are now living longer, healthier, and more comfortably than ever before. Yet there is a dark side to innovation – each wave of technological advances brings new threats to our health, our well-being and our environment. As the rate of technological innovation increases – and our ability to absorb and correct for mis-steps decreases – new ways of thinking about responsibility and innovation are needed. Without innovation in how we innovate, the chances of long-term risks outweighing short-term gains can only increase. On June 5th and 6th 2014, a group of researchers from widely differing backgrounds and experiences was brought together to creatively explore the challenges and opportunities around responsible technological innovation. Few of the participants had formally carried out research into responsible innovation. Yet all of them were engaged in some way at the interface between technology, innovation and society. The resulting discussions peeled apart the deep complexities in defining what responsible innovation is – even what innovation itself is. And they explored how multiple constituencies within society may benefit from thinking in different ways about responsibility and innovation. To capture the richness and depth of these explorations, the group compiled a collection of haiku that captured their thoughts and ideas. These were designed to stimulate further creative insights into responsible technological innovation – to become seeds of innovation for others as they approach developing technologies that are responsive and responsible to the societies they reside in. This is that collection of haiku.
