Should we always accept new technology?

from Something About Everything · host Anas Elsabagh

In our daily lives we are presented with new inventions, technologies, and applications; the question then becomes should we accept these new technologies? Is technology always adopted for the betterment of society? What if we are prevented from using tech that actually makes our lives easier and improves our standard of living? In this episode I provide some examples from history and our modern times highlighting how new technology can drastically impact the trajectory of society. And how decision makers can use their power combined with new technology to exploit the majority of the population. In this episode, I pose the question and attempt to weigh out the pros and cons of each of the answers to the question.
