Apple Pie and Rocket Ships, Is a Wholesome Technological Future Possible?

from The Theology Pugcast · host The Theology Pugcast

Today Chris shares some of his work on artificial intelligence and the prospects for a wholesome humanism. The question he's attempting to answer is, "Is it possible to preserve permanent things such as traditional family life when the technology we have developed can easily tears wholesome life to shreds?" In other words, is dystopia inevitable, or can we have an apple pie American wholesomeness and still have rocket ships?
