All Tech Is Human, a NYC-based non-profit committed to building the Responsible Tech pipeline, currently has a 175-person working group exploring the people, organizations, and ideas related to the HX (Human Experience) concept. HX is an approach to talking about, engaging with, and designing technology in a way that is aligned with our needs as humans — not users. Learn more at HXProject.org (All Tech Is Human is a partner org).

"Technology is integrated into nearly every aspect of our lives — and the days of pure IRL are over. We are increasingly reliant on big tech platforms and tools that don’t always prioritize the diverse human experience. As a result, many of us are struggling to develop healthy relationships with technology. We’re at a crossroads in our collective relationship to technology and now is the moment to create real change."

What is HX (Human Experience)? "HX sits at the intersection of many existing fields all working on ways to make our lives healthier, more equitable and more human. Digital citizenship, digital wellbeing, humane tech, ethical tech, responsible tech, and many other areas of work, all share similar values and goals. Just like User Experience, or UX, helps us better engage with apps and sites as users, HX helps us better engage with tech as people — and feel better while we’re doing it."

Why are we exploring the concept of HX? "A shared understanding of HX can help us better understand our relationships with technology, make better decisions, and inspire researchers, innovators and product makers to be more responsive to our diverse human needs. Young people, who have never known a world without smartphones and social media, are also eager to improve their relationships with tech—and are uniquely positioned to help guide us toward a better, more inclusive future."

AUDIENCE FOR THE REPORT: Our HX report will reach a broad adult audience across civil society, government, academia, and industry.
