Computing researchers should seek out such advice. To buttress responsible computing research efforts, research institutions, scientific societies, and research sponsors should develop ways for computing researchers to identify scholars with the ethical, societal impact, and domain expertise their projects require and provide support for such scholars to collaborate in the research.

Specific opportunities for such engagement include informing the public, assisting public- and private-sector acquirers of computing technologies, and bringing potential adverse consequences of emerging technologies to the attention of governments and other public organizations. In addition, universities, research sponsors, and scientific so cieties should create opportunities for computing researchers to learn how to effectively serve in advisory capacities.

Concerns such as these and others have led to increasing calls for governments to act both in making wiser decisions about their own use of computing technology and in revising regulations or implementing new ones. Furthermore, computing research has an obligation to support human flourishing, thriving societies, and a healthy planet.

Furthermore, choices among research topics and research methods are determinative of possible computing technologies. In focusing on computing research, this study considers how ethical and societal impact challenges can be addressed at this consequential foundational stage, and the practical steps that computing researchers, the research community as a whole, research sponsors, and research-performing institutions can take toward fostering the development of computing technologies that more often serve social good and less often cause harm.
