<p>In May, Kevin Kelly [https://air.mozilla.org/twelve-technology-forces-shaping-the-next-30-years-interview-with-kevin-kelly/ shared] the possibilities that technology will offer us over the next 30 years. Not addressed were some of the unintended consequences of this progress.

Innovation unchecked can pose serious challenges to our very humanity. Best practices for user research and focusing on specific use cases have limited impact on our ability to shape the future we want.</p>
<p> Join us in Portland and on [https://air.mozilla.org/being-human-in-a-data-filled-world-with-genevieve-bell-of-intel/ AirMo] for our Augtember speaker as we explore how to proactively preserve our humanity in a world that is increasingly digital. Specifically, we’ll learn about five things that don’t change and five things that do, and how paying close attention to them will help us be successful.</p>
