As the rate of change accelerates, how do we cope with the complexities of challenges and opportunities surrounding us – including AI, climate and environment, suffering, economy, business models, inequality, biotech, justice, and more. Smith shares a vision for a more productive, innovative, multi-disciplinary, and positively-impactful technology community that does so though including and building for all of humanity, at a time when many of us are reminded what divides us. In her own words: “The better we include people in our teams, the broader impact our solutions are going to have.” She refutes the notion that many voices haven’t always been part of the story, pointing to significant contributors from our world’s “missing history.” Can we scout and scale technology solutions to the biggest challenges our society faces using wide ranging models and approaches from venture capitalist, civic tech, philanthropy, and community organizing? Can we capacity build and support talent everywhere? Smith argues that we can—in fact, she shows that we already are.
