Fear of Asian Tech: Chips, Platforms, and Social Networks
Open to everyone!
Fear and suspicion of Asian technology– from DeepSeek AI, to social media platforms like TikTok, to Taiwanese semiconductor giants like TSMC that supply the world with chips– is higher in the U.S. than it has been for decades. This panel brings together leading Asian American researchers, artists, and filmmakers to explore Asia’s role in building today’s high technology. We will also examine how rising anxiety around Asian tech impacts Asian American communities in the U.S. today.
All are welcome and we strongly encourage undergraduate and graduate students to attend.
Advance registration is recommended. Free boba will be provided for the first 100 attendees!
