> And all the problems we have left are things like education,
homelessness, lack of meaning, healthcare, etc. All problems so
entrenched I’m willing to say at this point they can’t scale, and
therefore won’t be solved. Maybe the next technological revolution
will be a social dynamic. Who knows.
Hoorah to that!
We need a "cultural revolution" that let's us catch up with our
technological advances. New forms of digital literacy will change
the idea that any technological advance is good for its own sake
to seriously asking "what for?" of any technology.
Mere "efficiency" and "inevitability" will be seen as dumb reason and
forms of technological ignorance.
Intelligence amplification (IA) will usurp "artificial intelligence"
(AI), putting human agency ahead of laziness and "convenience".
For now I think we have to go through this runaway period of
technology, to get it out of our system. Let's hope it doesn't kill
us.
