> “On the one hand the computer makes it possible in principle to live in a world of plenty for everyone, on the other hand we are well on our way to using it to create a world of suffering and chaos.

That's not the computer's fault, and one would do well to abstain from making blanket judgements about the human-computer relationship as if the idea of a computer is to blame.
