Is tech broken?

We’ve all heard the saying: to build the next big tech product, we need to “move fast and break things.” But when it comes to building AI, does this come at a cost?

We’re excited to share u:wait, a new organization at Waterloo for undergraduates who care about algorithmic integrity in tech. We believe that good AI will come from moving slowly and building with care, asking questions about how our algorithms affect society.

ALUMNI SPEAKER SERIES
Navigating a Career: When to make a change and how to do it

You’re young (or not so young). You’re in your early (or mid) engineering career. Perhaps ambitious and a little more than curious. “The Great Resignation” is underway due to the economic effects of the global pandemic, and as industry grapples so publicly with talent shortages, you might be wondering: “Is now the time for me to move to the next opportunity, role, company or industry? And how do I do it the right way?”
