Will modern technology Inevitably push societies towards certain political extremes? If so, what do you think will happen?
It seems like there are two increasingly strong forces in modern technology on opposite ends.
One seems to be favoring the use of technology to enhance the ability of companies and nations to spy on the public, with the argument being that these changes are necessary due to similar advances in the darker corners of society (crime, espionage, etc.).
Others seem to be pushing for technology to automate work, with one side wanting that to lead to a better life for all, while others seem to want to retain the profits and simply not share them.
With all these extremes represented today as glimpses of possible futures, what do you think is most likely the trajectory we're headed towards?
