An inhuman vision.
In the tech world, innovation has mostly been replaced by innovation-speak. And a constant need for growth has led to products and technologies becoming the focus, rather than human benefit.
Adam Stoddard argues this eloquently, using Apple's Vision Pro as a symbol of this broader issue.
Apple isn’t alone here. This tail-wags-dog approach underpins the AI space at large, like it did with “web 3” and blockchain before it. If anything, it’s the defining characteristic of modern big tech. These are the richest companies on the planet, but they want more, and they’re desperate to find or force the next big thing in order to make it happen.
