OUR MISSION STATEMENT :
ABOUT ASCENTLY INSTITUTE :
Meeting the Moment . . .
THE CHALLENGE ::
Human rights have not kept up with the
rapid evolution of technology.
The acceleration of AI, technology and science has created what The
Future of Life calls a
"concentration of power."
Leaders of some of the
most wealthy and powerful entities in the world have publicly predicted
their technology could harm humans, and likely lead to human extinction.
Many of these companies acknowledge risks to humans, and yet, continue
to accelerate and reject oversight, regulation or accountability to
their customers, neighbors, fellow citizens, and humanity.
Inadequate
research, testing, user education, safety, customer support, regulation,
and alignment with human
values, have made adults, children, and future generations exceptionally
vulnerable to exploitation, manipulation, and potential harm.
EDUCATION and ACTION are urgently needed to enable individuals to make informed decisions and respond to a landscape changing faster than ever.
THE SOLUTION ::
We introduce research, insights, best practices, and practical strategies throughout our educational programs, events, and media.
- INFORM
- Understand how rapidly developing AI, technology, and science impact human rights, safety, privacy, commerce, community, and sovereignty of body, mind, and soul: Now and in the future.
- Implement best practices for protecting human rights, safety, privacy, commerce, community, and sovereignty of body, mind, and soul. of individuals while using technology in personal or professional settings.
- Understand how seemingly small decisions made today have permanent IRREVERSIBLE impact on the future of humanity and the planet.
- Understand legal implications of informed consent AND why this topic deserves your urgent attention. This topic is especially important to protect young adults and children not yet of age to legally give informed consent.
