I think there's a basically (new movement) religious desire to see a lot of these technologies come to fruition, either radically fundamentalist or lazier and less informed, that interferes with the application of the implications. They believe in the idol of technology, as told in the good news of sci-fi, and avert their eyes from the glaring cracks, blemishes, and lifelessness of it. I sense a lot of things in those types that I can't fully articulate, but some of the things they say are just mind-boggling, and gesture at a broken and unhinged aspect of software engineering culture.
