AI and new tech in crises: When is technology a force for good, and when are we piling on the problems in humanitarian response? In this episode, experts unpack why technology is never neutral, the fallback on "techno-utopian" solutions, and the risk of "techno-colonialism" and why it matters.

Guests: 

Mirca Madianou, professor in the School of Media, Communications and Cultural Studies at Goldsmiths, University of London, and author of "Technocolonialism: When Technology for Good is Harmful".

Nathaniel Raymond, executive director of the Humanitarian Research Lab at the Yale School of Public Health.

Rana F. Sweis, journalist and founder and managing director of WishBox Media.
