“Fear of Asian Tech: Chips, Platforms, and Social Networks”
Tony Chu (the Director and the Producer) will participate in the panel “Fear of Asian Tech: Chips, Platforms, and Social Networks” on September 25th (from 4:00 PM 5:30 PM) at the 10th Floor Weiser Hall 500 Church Street Ann Arbor, MI, 48109.
The description of the panel:
“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.”
