Yes! We should liberate our heads from all the linguistic noise that is offered to us by Big Tech companies with the idea of making us feel helpless and outdated without their products. "Progress" is just a soundbite to sell us things (and surveil us at the same time).

you know you can log off twitter right?

Mike, you’re right that the alarmists here are, at best, missing some forests. Folks at the @HumaneTech_ are more on point: tweaks to some incentive structures are good.

Tweaks to incentive structures are economic not technological. We can incentivize good behavior—do not pollute lest you incur a tax; do build hardware with renewable materials—& punish bad behavior. But we 100% need technological progress & it isn’t happening fast enough.
