US Election Special with Gaurab Bansal, Executive Director of Responsible Innovation Labs

In this week’s episode of Tech Can’t Save Us, hosts Paul David and Maya Dharampal-Hornby are joined by Gaurab Bansal, Executive Director of Responsible Innovation Labs.

Gaurab shares insights on the practice gap in responsible innovation and attributes it, largely, to the complex regulations US startups face, and the ever-changing political landscape–both impeding startups from scaling sustainably and responsibly.

The conversation also touches on the influence of Effective Altruism on policymakers in the US, and the impact of misinformation (AI-facilitated or otherwise) on democratic processes.
