6-Pack of Care: Ambassador Audrey Tang and Dr Caroline Green on the ‘Civic Care’ approach

Moving beyond abstract debates about AI futures, Tang and Green explore how attentiveness, responsibility, competence, responsiveness, solidarity, and symbiosis can form the foundation for AI systems that strengthen human relationships rather than undermine them. From real-world applications in social care to global policy discussions, this conversation offers hopeful, actionable pathways for creating technology that supports pluralism, community, and relational health.
