The six tenets of humane technology are:

  1. Sensitive to Human Nature: Technology should work in harmony with human vulnerabilities and biases, rather than exploiting them to grab attention.
  2. Minimize Harmful Consequences: Product teams must account for and minimize the negative, unintended, or downstream consequences of their technology.
  3. Center on Values: Technology should be designed to support human values (such as truth, connection, and well-being) rather than simply maximizing for engagement metrics.
  4. Create Shared Understanding: Technology should foster trust, truth, and the shared understanding necessary for functioning democracies, rather than creating fragmented realities.
  5. Support Fairness & Justice: Systems should promote a more just world by actively reducing bias and integrating the voices of people who experience harm.
  6. Help People Thrive: Products should be designed to empower users to act in alignment with their deeper, long-term intentions, rather than exploiting short-term impulses.
