Black Mirror

I think Black Mirror has got a lot of futuristic elements. One episode is based on something very similar to Neuralink. A few come close to the mobile obsessed culture and tech enabled voyuerism and vicarious living. One episode took inspiration from the pagerank algo to social rank algo.

I think we are truly becoming tech zombies (I live in a small village where tech penetration is quite low, so it doesnt affect me.).  Dont you think it is time we became more selective in our approach to technology?

IMO, first we need to do an honest evaluation of technology in every aspect of our lives and the benefits and harms associated with it. Then we need to evaluate the need for further progress in that particular field.

My personal opinion is pro tech. But the gross misuse or abuse concerns me. A vicious cycle of tech slavery is perpetuated with the advent of each tech.
