Do we really need the latest tech? Questioning whether AI and automation truly improve our lives
• We should question if new technologies like AI truly serve our needs or just provide convenience • Just because something is more efficient doesn't mean it's preferable or desirable • Automating jobs may boost profits but hurt people who find meaning in that work • We tend to ignore whether innovations like Facebook were ever wanted or needed • Efficiency gains don't always make people happier or more fulfilled in the long run
