Well said ! The more who see through and make different choices the more fragile it will become. Making the choice now is the key though.

Few people are intelligently having this conversation. The conversation has been propagandized, I think, so that the term 'innovation' would be deemed irrevocably a topic for fit only for tech, where few in the general public are being included in the discussion. I just learned of a sustainable construction innovation today that would eliminate formaldehyde for almost the entire structure of any kind of project while being fire and mold resistant. Where's the space for this discussion today?

Everytime a question is raised about E.M.'s activity in proximity to DC, for example, the reflex response is that Trump ran with overwhelming approval while making known his plans for Musk. This doesn't mean that The People approve of every E.M. business model, and yet we're looking at his vehicles grace the White House lawn.

There can't be an approval rating without discussion. Meanwhile, the general population has been served up a two-for-one deal. No one can say that the tech agenda isn't influencing what's going on currently in proximity to DC, something that Trump did NOT campaign on. Yet, we keep hearing about his approval rating in regard to the topic. It's a false duplicity. Tech could be great, but the public just hasn't been included in the discussions.

This has instead been reserved for big industry while it's influences are bombarding us. Kind of like the format in which ai advanced. It used data fed from user activity on every major platform, a two-for-one deal that hasn't been explicitly assessed. Why does ai get to source an incomprehensible amount of information without sourcing ? Who are the writer, authors, speakers, artists, photographers, researchers, architects, etc. we should be crediting for every response spat out? What human could present any credible research without providing the source and/or methods?

These are the kinds of discussions that tech hopes we overlook at their gain . Btw, there have been numerous medical cures kept from the public. We don't actually need ai for anything.
