Below we outline some background to TNO’s Early Research Program ‘WISE Policy Making’. In this project, we developed methods tools to support policy makers in making policies that explicitly steer towards people’s wellbeing. In the document below, we make explicit some of our underlying ideas. We understand wellbeing as collective and...

Below are some ideas for Dialogue Support in the context of TNO’s Early Research Program ‘WISE Policy Making’. More specifically, these ideas are meant to organize workshops with the WISE Cube, with policy makers, with stakeholders, and possibly also with citizens. These diverse people can collaborate in various stages of policy making. We...

Welcome to this short guide to Transdisciplinary Work (TDW). Its purpose is to inform relevant people – such as business product owners, performance coaches, project leaders, team coaches, and HR – at TNO about the potential benefits of TDW and about what needs to be in place in order to facilitate TDW. This guide is based on our experiences of...

When we talk about ethics in relation to the design and application of technology—or more specifically, of artificial intelligence (AI)—we often refer to traditions like consequentialism, deontology, or virtue ethics. Typically, consequentialism appeals to people with technology backgrounds. It involves evaluating the plusses and minuses of...

Algorithms and AI tools are becoming increasingly influential artefacts in commercial and governance contexts. Algorithms and AI tools are not value neutral; to some extent they must be rendered knowable and known as objects, and in their implementation and deployment, to see clearly and understand their implications for moral values, and what...

A human-centric approach to the design and deployment of AI systems aims to support and augment human capabilities. This sounds worthwhile indeed. But what could this look like in a military context? We explored a human-centric approach to the design and deployment of highly autonomous, unarmed Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), or drone, and an...

We used two ideas from cybernetics—the sociotechnical system and the feedback loop—to explore ways to deal with some current challenges in the design and application of AI systems, e.g., in Human-Machine Teaming and Algorithmic Decision Making. As thought experiments, we envisioned two ‘cybernetic’ systems. Our goal is to explore the usefulness...

Human-centred design (HCD) is an approach which enables designers, developers and engineers to focus their projects on prospective users of the products or services they are working on. It enables them to focus on users’ experiences and to involve them throughout the process of design and development, in an iterative and multidisciplinary...

Often, when I talk with people about my interest in ethical issues that are at play in social media or smart cities, people mention the issue of privacy. Or when we talk about big data and algorithms, they mention the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation. In such cases, I often reply that indeed, privacy is important but that I am...

Shannon Vallor’s ‘Technology and the Virtues’ is a book that we direly need. My hope is that people in various fields read it and that it can function as ‘a philosophical guide to a future worth wanting’, as its subtitle proposes. Now, why do we need this book? And why now?

In this essay, the author reflects on several personal experiences in projects and advocates Slow Innovation as an alternative to the putative need for speed, the primacy of efficiency and the assumption that faster is better. Yes, RI does take time. Let us wear Slow Innovation as a badge of honour. Let us promote reflexivity: make time for...

Governments and companies are increasingly promoting and organizing Responsible Innovation. It is, however, unclear how the seemingly incompatible demands for responsibility, which is associated with care and caution, can be harmonized with demands for innovation, which is associated with risk-taking and speed. We turn to the tradition of virtue...

There are many and diverse methods available that can help researchers, designers, developers, and engineers integrate ethics in their research and innovation projects. In practice, however, they can find this challenging. They may believe that such methods are difficult and time-consuming, or that ethics hinders innovation and creativity....

The collection and use of personal data on citizens in the design and deployment of algorithms in the domain of justice and security is a sensitive topic. Values like fairness, autonomy, privacy, accuracy, transparency and property are at stake. Negative examples of algorithms that propagate or exacerbate biases, inequalities or injustices have...

We face enormous challenges, e.g., to transition to sustainable energy, to promote conviviality, to combat economic inequalities. These are wicked problems, which need to be addressed via transdisciplinary approaches. The problem is that we tend to underestimate the difficulties of transdisciplinary innovation. As if putting different people in...

This article presents a conceptual investigation into the value impacts and relations of algorithms in the domain of justice and security. As a conceptual investigation, it represents one step in a value sensitive design based methodology (not incorporated here are empirical and technical investigations). Here, we explicate and analyse the...
