Staying Human in the Age of Big Tech
- It’s important to evaluate tech’s continued development with a critical eye and define what overreach is and isn’t. UX designers have to use a human-first mindset in their work.

- When adopting technology to new mediums, it’s vital that we keep two things in mind. One: Are we creating technology for technology’s sake? And two: how does this impact current societal habits?
- We need to consider the nuances of everyday life and consider the physical and digital realities for how the designs we create are used.
