Can we anticipate Tech giants on seeing their cultural impact supporting research in philosophy, poetry and the arts, social sciences? So much focus on engineering shortages, not enough on visions for society.
-
only from those with backgrounds in the humanities, to be frank. Functional expertise tends to lend itself to suggesting (and then proving, so far) you have all the tools you need to be successful in your role.
