I think the next 10-20 years will indeed be decisive. And yes, most needed changes are in human behavior and politics, not technology development. Reminds me of an essay called āThereās no App for Thatā by Richard Heinberg, where he exposes that, for problems of climate, energy, inequality of biodiversity loss :
āThe real problem is that [ā¦] we are asking technology to solve problems that demand human moral interventionāones that require ethical decisions, behavior change, negotiation, and sacrifice. By mentally shifting the burden for solving our biggest problems onto technology, we are collectively making fundamental moral and tactical errors ; moral, because we are abdicating our own human agency; tactical, because purely technological solutions are inadequate to these tasks. We need to rethink what we delegate to machines, and what we take responsibility for directly as moral beingsā
Ok, take your time !
