Related to the basic income project -- questions about the societal impact of technology that the technology or business sector might be hesitant to investigate themselves.
For example, how do social networks, targeted advertising, etc. impact social dynamics and sense of self? Are these impacts positive or negative, and could technology improve them?
- bahro 11y agoOn a broader scale, how can we measure and understand happiness/quality of life? It is difficult to improve on factors that cannot be measured -- if the goal of technology is to improve quality of life (which I believe it is), then we need a way of measuring that holistically.
