Julie Guirado

CHT Executive Director

Areas of expertise: this • that •

Julie believes that technology represents society’s most critical challenge, and that the narratives we hold around “progress” influence technological outcomes. With social media and AI, we’ve had to ask: what kind of progress are we actually building, and who is shaping it? Technology can enhance our humanity, or extract from it, depending on the incentives driving it. By interrogating today’s “progress” narratives around technology, Julie believes we can advocate for products – and visions of the future – that truly benefit all of society.
