In the current system technology is meant to serve the shareholders. That might end up serving us, if you believe the standard narrative. But maybe the shareholders will just carve out a few nature reserves for themselves and just wait for the rest of us to die off. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

"we"? Are we all now billionaires who decide what gets built and who gets laid off? None of "us" gets to decide this. Only the very wealthy get to decide. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
