Collective Understanding of Technology
The understanding of technology involves different levels of knowledge and expertise. It is important to have a collective, distributive knowing, where individuals from various backgrounds contribute their expertise to form a comprehensive understanding. When developing technology policies, it is essential to include a diverse group of professionals, including lawyers, computer scientists, social scientists, and national security experts, to ensure both practicality and aspiration. The goal is to create aspirational documents that push boundaries while still being practically achievable.
