OCTOBER 2026 · A NEW CHAPTER

Responsible Today is now Responsible Now.

A new name and home at responsible.now, with the same commitment to a responsible relationship with technology. Explore our Bengaluru workshop archive below, or invite us to start a conversation with your community.

Challenges 

Challenges created by technology can be roughly divided into two categories
Individual Challenges 

we see in us and the people around with the effects of modern technology for example Addiction, Dependency and Influence.

Societal Challenges 

that are results of individual effects culminates into larger problems of our society today for example Polarization, Power Imbalance and Knowledge gap.
 

About Us

Responsible Now is an open source non-profit initiative. We are working to identify and address the challenges arising from our modern digital lives. The impact of AI on our lives cannot be underestimated. Not only do we work and create with AI but it also impacts the way we see the world, interact with each other and influences us in the choices we make. This directly contributes to issues of mental health, inequality, misinformation and authoritarianism. Our approach is not anti-technology but building a responsible relationship with technology.
