These platforms were</div><div>created by people, so it is fully within our</div><div>power to change them. But we can’t rely</div><div>on those who created the problem to fix it.</div><div>We need to hear from and deeply involve</div><div>others, including those the problem impacts</div><div>most.</div><div>
</div><div>A more humane future will require</div><div>fundamental changes to how our society</div><div>designs, regulates and uses technology.</div><div>To undo the side effects of extractive</div><div>technology, we need to:</div></div><div>
</div><div><div><b>Design//</b> Diversify the tech talent</div><div>pipeline, center the experiences of</div><div>vulnerable populations, and design our</div><div>technology as tools to serve human</div><div>strengths rather than manipulate</div><div>human weaknesses.</div><div>
</div><div><b>• Regulation//</b> Adopt safeguards</div><div>that limit harm to individuals and drive</div><div>greater accountability between creators</div><div>and users.</div><div>
</div><div>BUT CORPORATIONS DO NOT LIKE TO HAVE ANY INTERFEENCE, ESPECIALLY IF IT HURTS PROFIT MARGIN. WHAT ROLE DOES PROFIT PLAY IN THE DOCUMENTARY? BECUASE OF THEIR CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS [SOME DARK MONEY] AND LOBBYING, THEY OFTEN WRITE THE RULES TO BENEFIT THEMSELVES AND HAMPER COMPETITION.</div><div>
</div><div><b>• Use// </b>Shift cultural norms and</div><div>individual behaviors in ways that</div><div>promote a positive, constructive</div><div>relationship with technology and our</div><div>devices.</div></div><div>

</span></span></div><div><span><span style="font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Z9KysBogheudj2L02s8LFyYlyNYNeS_M/view">https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Z9KysBogheudj2L02s8LFyYlyNYNeS_M/view</a></span></span></div><div><span>
</span></div><div><div><b>Conversation</b></div><div>
</div><div>1. Take a moment after the film. If your group</div><div>is viewing The Social Dilemma right before</div><div>the discussion, pause between. When the</div><div>discussion begins, invite attendees to share</div><div>initial reactions and emotions before diving into</div><div>specific questions.</div><div>
</div><div>2. Set expectations. We recommend establishing</div><div>the Chatham House Rule, which allows</div><div>participants to share thoughts and stories</div><div>from discussions outside the “room” as long</div><div>as everyone’s identity and affiliation are kept</div><div>anonymous. You might also set other norms,</div><div>such as creating a judgement-free zone</div><div>so people feel safe to freely express their</div><div>experiences and opinions.</div><div>
</div><div>3. Keep the conversation focused. Your role</div><div>as a moderator means ensuring everyone</div><div>feels heard. If a few people begin dominating</div><div>the conversation, draw others in by calling</div><div>on names or changing the format of how</div><div>people answer questions. If you have a larger</div><div>groups (e.g., more than 10), consider breaking</div><div>the conversation into smaller groups. Zoom</div><div>breakout rooms are a great way to do this.</div><div>
</div><div>4. Encourage participants to personalize,</div><div>specify and stay engaged. Ask the group</div><div>to ground what they’re saying in personal</div><div>experience or anecdotes from the film rather</div><div>than broad, abstract statements. Allow</div><div>attendees to disagree and explain why so they</div><div>can learn from each other’s perspectives, but</div><div>steer them away from debating or negative</div><div>judgments. If anyone seems uncomfortable or</div><div>frustrated, encourage them to take a moment</div><div>but not drop out of the conversation.</div><div>
</div><div>5. Embrace complexity and collective</div><div>responsibility. Rather than villainizing one</div><div>single source that lets everyone else “off the</div><div>hook,” focus the conversation on the agency</div><div>– whatever that scale may be – of those in the</div><div>discussion.</div><div>
</div><div>6. Connect the dots to your community. As you</div><div>hear people expressing common problems,</div><div>relate them to key terms and issues in the film</div><div>as well as what’s going on in the world and in</div><div>your community right now. Pose rhetorical</div><div>questions like: “Why does this matter [in</div><div>LOCATION or to AUDIENCE/GROUP]?” You</div><div>might also consider focusing on just one of the</div><div>three dilemmas on the next page to tailor the</div><div>discussion to your audience.</div><div>
</div><div>7. Enjoy yourself. Treat this conversation as a</div><div>positive opportunity to discuss how we live our</div><div>lives and spend our time, and welcome laughter</div><div>and commiseration.</div><div>
</div><div><b>8. End on a hopeful note.</b> Hope is a powerful</div><div>motivator. Close with a vision for more humane</div><div>technology and the feasible steps your</div><div>community can take to get there.</div></div><div><span><span style="font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">
