Policy in Action: Strategic Litigation that helps govern AI

CHT is currently supporting trailblazing litigation that spotlights the dangers of anthropomorphic design in AI chatbots.
At CHT, we believe in the promises of technology. But these promises can end up distorted by misaligned incentives hidden throughout the development, deployment, and diffusion of a new technology. CHT provides the lucid perspective and seasoned expertise needed to identify and transform the most critical incentives, so that society can reap the benefits of technology — and minimize harm.
Define incentives at play within the tech ecosystem, from the psychological to societal level. CHT connects the dots across fields — policy, tech design, and psychology — to make complex issues more accessible so that people are empowered to act where they can.
Identify and implement targeted interventions to produce systems-level change. CHT advocates for viable design- and policy-based alternatives to the status quo in the tech ecosystem. We equip decision-makers with systemic insights that allow tech harms to be remedied as they evolve.
Artificial intelligence is one of the most powerful technologies humanity has ever created. Our work deconstructs the simplistic “promise” and “peril” narratives around AI, and brings into view the reality of how design vastly influences AI’s impact on society.
CHT’s work has reached hundreds of millions of people worldwide, including key stakeholders in tech and policy spaces.
