Discover the technologies and trends that threaten humanity and our planet--- and how we can rein them back in,together.
In The Unintended Consequences of Technology: Solutions, Breakthroughs and the Restart We Need, accomplished tech entrepreneur Chris Ategeka delivers an insightful and eye-opening exploration of the challenges and the opportunities at the intersection of technology, society, and our planet. Detailing both positive and negative technology use cases that, on the one hand, have made humanity better, but on the other hand pose a serious threat to individuals and groups across the world, the author demonstrates how to avoid allowing powerful technologies to overcome our better natures.
In this book, you'll:
Discover how the forces of capitalism, greed, and the myths that surround meritocracy, when combined with exponential technology, pose an existential risk for humanity.
Explore the many exponential technologies such as gene editing, 5G, behavior modification, cyberspace, and more that have lots of promise but also uncertainty.
Consider the future of humanity we wish to collectively build, and whether we can rebuild a capacity for empathy at scale in our tech tools.
Perfect for founders, business leaders, executives, managers, Chief Technology Officers, and anyone else (i.e., all human beings) responsible for the use and proliferation of advanced technologies.
The Unintended Consequences of Technology is a thought-provoking, must-read resource for those at the forefront of our new technological reality.
