In the last podcast we talked about the bystander effect and vigilantism. The natural question was, “How do people get to that point of dehumanizing?" Where do we see it online? Everywhere. What does it lead to? Harm. We'll talk about who's doing it and what it looks like in this episode.

In Episode 4, we went over our origins and goals, and in this discussion, we chat about how to catch blind spots in our biases. This ensures that our product and technology are as inclusive as possible. We'll answer questions, such as: How are we implementing humanity-friendly technology? How do we continue to be powerfully sustainable with our tech? And much more!

This idea "move fast and break things" is the mantra of the tech industry. Our response: Why should tech be less accountable than other industries? Today, Ginny talks about something that she hears all the time when talking about our design process and commitment to creating inclusive and humanity-friendly technology.

How can we do no harm as a technology startup? CEO Ginny Katz and Software Engineer Joshua Barringer define and discuss humanity-friendly technology and how it is needed now more than ever.

Many tech companies find themselves in hot water because they forget one important thing: community. In building technology and tools, intention is everything. How does "Do No Harm" influence our decisions in technology? Listen in to get inspired.

In this episode of HazChats, Ginny Katz share's how HazAdapt got started and outlines a new era we are in; an era with many facets including technology, social constructs, and climate change.

In this inaugural episode, HazAdapt founder and CEO, Ginny Katz, kicks off the conversation about what's to come with HazChats.
