But if the culture makes it hard, technology is hardly going to fix that, right? Culture is a human problem, not a technology problem. Technology is just a tool

But if the culture makes it hard, technology is hardly going to fix that, right? Culture is a human problem, not a technology problem. Technology is just a tool, and perhaps a force multiplier, but a change in culture?
- SllX 5y agoCorrect; but that doesn’t mean there isn’t any utility in new technology for improving our culture so long as the people using it want to do so.
- kelseyfrog 5y agoThat's where the real fun of it lies. Imagine you have at your disposal every tool to modify individual behavior, but no tools to modify social systems? What second-order effects result from solely relying on individual interventions? If there are ways that make people feel ok with the soul-crushing weight to social ills, is it right to employ them?
