Trust by Design with Cindy Hansen

Trust by Design with Cindy Hansen

AI is the great accelerator. As systems learn to interpret, measure and make decisions about people, what happens to human judgment, agency and trust? In Trust by Design, Cindy Hansen explores mental health, health data and AI through 20+ years inside outcome measurement: designing the tools, using them with therapists across 25+ countries, and asking whose voice gets heard and whether it’s helping. Sharper questions, practical bridges and fresh hope for technology worthy of our trust. A Holistic Research Canada podcast. New episodes every Sunday.

Darcy said no. The record says otherwise.

A counselling note can be accurate when it is written and still become something very different when it leaves the therapeutic relationship in which it was created.

In this episode of Trust by Design, we follow Darcy’s record beyond the counselling room: de-identified, linked with other data, interpreted by AI, and reused for purposes Darcy may never have anticipated.

Nobody in the ...

    DISGRACELAND

    DISGRACELAND is an award-winning music and true crime podcast about musicians getting away with murder and behaving very badly. Jerry Lee Lewis's 5th wife? Dead. Sid and Nancy? Both dead. Why? Because musicians are insane, and insane things happen to them. Why did we lose Amy Winehouse at 27? Was Debbie Harry really abducted by Ted Bundy as she claims? Is Patti Smith not just the "Godmother of Punk", but also the "Original True Crime Girl"? What really happened the night of the Jay Z nightclub stabbing? What do the Diddy indictments truly reveal? All these stories and more, on artists from every genre and their true crimes, in our massive 260-plus story archive. The Dead, the Stones, Johnny, Willie, Frank, Kurt, Courtney, Gaga, Lana, Taylor, and too many to name. DISGRACELAND is music history come to life through audio storytelling as you've never heard it before, with revealing facts: yes, assassins are the real reason the Beatles quit touring—reclaimed myths: no, Mama Cass didn't die from choking on a ham sandwich––and constant reckoning between art and artist––all told through the lens of true crime. This is the podcast for the self-proclaimed "Disgos", the musically obsessed and the true crime heads; the outsiders, the independent thinkers who know that the best history is the history that gets buried. DISGRACELAND is where host Jake Brennan tells the stories they didn't want told. The kind you'll end up telling someone else. Get ready to uncover hidden truths and buckle up for truly edge-of-your-seat storytelling. New, fully scripted, sound-designed episodes are released every Tuesday. Bonus chat-style episodes where Jake responds to voicemails, texts, and emails from Disgos hit on Thursdays, and "Rewind" episodes from our archive drop on Sundays. DISGRACELAND is not a journalistic podcast. It's an entertainment podcast inspired by true events. Certain dialogue and scenes are dramatized, as is common in scripted entertainment based on real stories. Sources and credits for each episode are available at www.disgracelandpod.com.
