Measurementality: Counting Mental Health and Caregiving with Amandeep Singh Gill and Riane Eisler


What metrics do you trust that guide your efforts to improve your mental health? And how do you value the caregivers in your lives? How does the fact that caregiving metrics aren't a part of GDP/ economic Indicators affect how society and AI Systems design prioritize mental health and caregivers - or not?

In this 3rd episode of Measurementality, we discuss mental health, wellness, indicators, metrics, and designing for the future with invited guests Amandeep Gill and Riane Eisler.

In this episode, we explore how AI can better be designed with mental health and wellbeing in mind.

Throughout this series, we ask our guests on the show a series of three questions to explore “what counts in the algorithmic age”:

  1. How is success measured today in AIS?

  2. What is the positive future you’re working to build with AIS?

  3. What are the measures of success for that positive future?

Do you have thoughts about these questions? Submit your own responses on the IEEE SA website to be considered for one of our Measurementality reports!
