Why are we doing this?

We all have been overwhelmed or irritated by technological change at some point. It may have been in our private lives, where suddenly no one wanted to meet at a prearranged time because everyone had a mobile with them to change the time and place permanently. It could have been the new car, where one could no longer repair anything without using the digital diagnostics software. It might have been the unease, when every page one visited showed the item one just looked at on an online shopping portal. It could also have been the business task that got outsourced to a machine by your employer and the surveillance of your business and private life by various online actors. Or the horror, when a semi-autonomous drone murdered a human being.

We all also have been enthusiastic and overjoyed by technological change at some point. It may have been the pictures of loved ones taken with our mobiles. It could have been the friends we made while playing online games. We might have discovered elusive information on one of our hobbies or interests with mobile devices on the go and learned new skills. Maybe it was the video call at nearly no cost to family at the other end of the world. Or it could have been a (cat) video that made you laugh for days or a music remix that brought you to tears. It might have been the prosthesis for a mechanical hand. It could also have been because of the medical diagnosis software, that helped a doctor save your life. Or it could have been the ecological data models and AI / machine-learning-tools that scientists use to help predict a climate catastrophe.
