Great article, but it feels a bit absurd to not mention the clear, obvious cause of all this: wealth inequality and corporate governmental capture because of capitalism. Like, that’s it. Almost any other form of government would be better setup for things in this essay like universal healthcare, and hopefully it’s obvious why the current stock-market-obsessed version of capitalism isn’t good for long term engineering tasks like testing and QA. Here they just say that we need better voting algorithms, which is a necessary but not sufficient fix — we’re not stuck with this bad electoral system because we couldn’t figure out a better one, we’re stuck here because it benefits those in power. Also this essay could do with a bit more “and AI is going to exacerbate this injustice” but that’s my bias lol
