The paramount reason we put up with the churn of technology — always having to change and confront new problems — is that technology makes us better humans.
In one of your books you mention that what we call “external technology” is actually part of Earth’s natural evolution — a way for the planet to extend and transcend itself through us.
But this evolutionary process is also causing real harm to the natural world, largely because of our own limitations.
How do we keep our enthusiasm and sense of possibility when we see so many problems created along the way?
Autonomous cars have already made us better drivers ; )
Kevin, thank you for this. Pray be it so.
