I can’t edit my post, but I think there are good points here. The “ad revenue” comment was snarky and for Elon and Bezos may not be fair because they have had some major impacts to quality of life - Elon with electric vehicles and Bezos with availability of goods, AWS, etc. They both have given really smart people some really interesting problems to work, and we may recognize that in stories as they come out in 30-40 years. Thinking a bit more about it, I think it takes a company today to make an impact given the complexity of technology. Things like dc and bc have been coded and discovered, and now we’re building advanced products to do advanced things. Underlying my original comment is my concern for the allocation of brain power in technology today. I don’t know what the right ratio is, but I do feel like we’ve got too many people going toward taking users’ attention and discretionary income rather than working more valuable (on a societal level) problems.
