How does deeptech innovation really happen? And, how can startups address the most pressing problems of our time?
The Innovation Equation features analyses of critical issues at the intersection of technology, startups, and society. These include insights from experts and cutting-edge research to better understand the areas in emerging technology that hold exciting potential, such as AI and data applications and infrastructure, and their broader implications. Questions that I will break down and explore include:
How do these AI-driven technologies influence our behavior?
How can we design and use technology in a human-centered way?
What are the societal implications of new technologies and their development?
What are the critical challenges in AI and emerging technology development, and what are potential startup solutions tackling these problems?
And ultimately, what are the hidden opportunities for innovation and rethinking existing paradigms for technological development?
If you’re building a startup or solution in these areas, conducting research, or working in a space that addresses any of these questions, feel free to reach out!
About Me
My name is Yogasai, I work on AI policy and system evaluations at the Responsible AI Institute, and I'm fascinated by how emerging technologies, or "deeptech" shape society and individuals, and vice versa. Previously, I studied Innovation, Strategy, and Organization at the University of Cambridge, where I wrote my thesis on deeptech product innovation and ethics. Prior to my current work on evaluating AI systems, I spent time in the startup and venture capital space, which sparked my passion for emerging tech startups and innovation. Before that, I worked on research projects related to NLP systems, security and AI research, and human-centered design. You can find me on LinkedIn, or Substack.
