I’m founder of a tech company focused on leveraging emerging technology to build a more equitable future. Would ANYONE be interested in discussing how we’re using VR as a way to further and deepen DEI work. Specifically if anyone is at that point of partnering with us AND if any DEI professionals are interested in knowing more about our work.

Where do you work? I'm skeptical on the capacity of VR and AI to create a more equitable future just because I've only read stuff about how artificial intelligence furthers our inherent biases. But I would be interested in learning more about your company's philosophy/agenda wrt using VR for deepen DEI work

Definitely intrigued on how VR can be used to further DEI initiatives.

I went under contract last fall for a new build that will be done later this year. In the contract the seller/builder included a clause that gave them the ability to change the price without cause anytime before the house is complete. This past week they invoked that clause to increase the price by like 7%, supposedly due to material costs. I can either agree to the increase or they return my deposit. My question: is that type of clause even legal? (Cont)

I recently moved from litigation to transactional and am struggling to reach billable targets. In litigation it was no problem hitting 1800+ hours but don’t see how I’m going to come anywhere close to that in a transactional role.

General question: Is there any room in corporate America for real, actionable DE&I discussions and initiatives?

Is this just how it is?
