Weizenbaum examines computers and society (1985)
- davidcamel 9y agoWeizenbaum's rhetoric is powerful, especially during his takedown of "if I don't do it, someone else will". Although I think his view is from a pretty "high" technological perspective . . . his warnings probably don't apply to those of us who are working on less impactful software/engineering pursuits than the ones he describes. Also, his argument that computers have been a force for conservatism is new to me. I'm not sure how true that is today.
