There are also potential negative societal consequences that need to be addressed. Here are some key concerns and potential mitigation strategies. We have designed our models and features in a way we make our best to mitigate the most impactful cons on the technology use end:
- Digital Divide and Accessibility:
Concern:
Even with efforts to make technology universally accessible, disparities in digital literacy and access could persist, particularly in underdeveloped regions. This could exacerbate existing inequalities.
Mitigation:
- as our platform is public and additive, available under subscription, every human around the world can access it for the lowest price possible and rest of the connected costs
- also we have in our product roadmap network solution to extend accessibility at the network level
- Privacy and Data Security:
Concern:
Increased reliance on digital platforms can lead to heightened risks of data breaches and privacy violations. The collection and usage of personal data could be misused.
Mitigation:
- public nature of the device connected with the distributed ledger technologies-based databases use will provide users with better options for their data management including local connected storages
- the business models we use exclude by default user data exposure for monetization purposes unless the user intentionally joins data sharing-based models
- Employment Displacement:
Concern:
Automation and AI could displace certain jobs, leading to unemployment and social unrest among workers whose skills become obsolete.
Mitigation:
we employ models that allow people to have more options to monetise physical and digital type of skills without direct employment thus we mitigate possible automation impact over employment and jobs accessibility
- Mental Health Issues:
Concern:
Constant connectivity and high-intensity work environments could lead to increased stress, burnout, and other mental health problems.
Mitigation:
we design our products the way where technology works seamlessly and with more physical freedom available for HMI, which mitigates a major portion of potential mental health negative impacts
- Ethical and Moral Implications, Surveillance and Control:
Concerns:
- The integration of AI and human interactions raises ethical concerns regarding autonomy, decision-making, and the potential for biased algorithms.
- Enhanced technological integration could be used for mass surveillance and control, potentially leading to loss of individual freedoms and privacy.
Mitigation:
it is in the core of our feature set to validate content sources and safe human-machine interactions with a necessary grade of transparency and control provided for the human to stay on the top of ethical and moral agenda of daily interactions
- Cultural Homogenization:
Concern:
The global spread of digital platforms could lead to cultural homogenization, eroding local cultures and traditions, endangers democracy decreasing opinion pluralism
Mitigation:
- Support and promote local content and cultural diversity.
- Encourage the use of technology to preserve and celebrate cultural heritage.
- cross-language and -culture mutual understanding is in the core of our feature set focus thus we make it less required for personalities to homogenize to achieve certain level of congruence for effective collaboration
- Dependency on Technology:
Concern:
Over-reliance on technology could lead to loss of essential human skills and reduce face-to-face interactions, impacting social cohesion.
Mitigation:
- Our primary mission is making interfaces seamless and non-invasive as we target encouraging human interaction and skill development growth, not isolation within the technological bubbles
- we want to reconnect people by removing interface layer, not adding it
our business models engage human-to-human interactions without a retention requirement as we do not target advertisement monetisation, which the last is one of the pillars for modern web
