"Original research to ground informed, evidence-based public debate about emerging technology." Yep. Need that. 🤩

Original research on topics including AI and automation, the impact of technology on labor and health, and online disinformation.

Data & Society is an independent nonprofit research organization. We believe that empirical evidence should directly inform the development and governance of new technology. We study the social implications of data and automation, producing original research to ground informed, evidence-based public debate about emerging technology.

We combine academic rigor with creative outreach to connect, convene, and sustain expert and practitioner networks. Since 2014, Data & Society has defined the field with original research and programming to break down disciplinary silos and connect provocative thinkers across sectors.
