Why bad tech gets built and how we can stop it | Catherine Flick | TEDxStaffordshireUniversity

Professor Catherine Flick journeys back the 1700s to understand resistance to new technologies. The pattern is common across new and emerging technologies as they come out of development and interact with society.

But at what cost?

This talk looks at how we can minimise the costs to society, convince companies that the pushback is beneficial to everyone, and integrate technology more beneficially.
