    Big Tech Under the Spotlight: Privacy, Transparency, and Regulation

    Julia Boorstin, Michael Beckerman, Fadi Tahati, Tristan Harris, Luke Nozick, Kathleen Sullivan, Eric Schmidt

    Leading technologists, antitrust officials, and investors convened to address the misalignment between rapid digital innovation and outdated 20th-century governance frameworks, highlighting critical risks ranging from deepfake-driven violence and algorithmic radicalization to the potential erosion of U.S. competitive advantage against state-backed foreign rivals. The panelists identified structural flaws in the current attention economy and data practices, with experts like Michael Beckerman warning that unilateral U.S. regulation could disarm domestic firms while figures such as Fadi Tahati and Tristan Harris called for a new global social contract to treat human attention as a finite resource. Ultimately, the discussion emphasized the urgent need to decouple rule design from enforcement timelines and to establish transnational norms that prioritize long-term societal goals over short-term profit incentives.

    Is Gender Parity Possible in the 21st Century?

    Molly Ashby, Geena Davis, Deborah DeHaas, Manju Ganeriwala, Ann McElaney-Johnson, Willow Bay, Kathleen Sullivan, Subha Barry, Dr. Nita Arindapol, Kelly McElhaney, Brenda Bates, Nancy, Chris McGrath

    A recent panel featuring Geena Davis and industry leaders from academia, finance, and government exposed severe gender disparities in family media, corporate leadership, and political representation, projecting that parity could take centuries at current rates. Speakers argued that these gaps stem from early media conditioning, retention failures, and cultural narratives that limit women's career aspirations, necessitating structural solutions like Norway-style quotas, diverse talent databases, and intentional content rewriting. The group concluded that achieving Hillary Clinton's 2050 vision of 50% global female leadership requires a mandatory shift from voluntary goodwill to accountability models driven by the economic necessity of talent scarcity and Millennial consumer pressure.
