OMG - Futures’ At the Edge 2023

OMG Futures' At the Edge 2023 report discusses the emergence of Gentle Tech, a collection of startups that are working towards resolving issues of bitterness and division in a more wholesome way. These companies focus on incorporating aspirational values such as inclusion, tenderness, learning, and communality in their products at source. Gentle Tech aims to provide practical and immediate solutions for communities on the ground, rather than being controlled by "benevolent" billionaires who shape the course of history according to their grand plan. Unlike online debates over free speech vs hate speech and trolls and bots, Gentle Tech seeks to address social issues through smart and innovative solutions.
