The CCC Council released a new Whitepaper, "Addressing the Unforeseen Harms of Technology"

 

The CCC Council’s Addressing the Unforeseen Deleterious Impacts of Technology (AUDIT) task force, composed of Nadya Bliss, Kevin Butler, David Danks, Ufuk Topcu, and Matthew Turk, recently released a new Whitepaper, "Addressing the Unforeseen Harms of Technology."

This Whitepaper examines methods for addressing the potentially harmful consequences of computing technologies that are difficult to anticipate. It posits that the majority of technological harms are not intentional but rather result from a failure to identify and mitigate these risks before deployment. The paper delineates specific, actionable strategies for anticipating and managing these potential harms, thereby enhancing the safety and dependability of emerging technologies.
