I have the impression that the biggest problem is that these issues are not intuitively approachable anymore.<p>We have very similar issues with computer security. The majority of people have a totally different skillset and simply can&#x27;t grasp these things. This is probably only getting worse as the technology behind our interfaces is getting increasingly unintuitive.<p>On the extreme end of this separation in our culture of specialists we may need a fundamentally new framework for trust.
And maybe it&#x27;s these the trust issues causing all these nonsensical surveillance ideas at the moment — to get &quot;more control&quot;.<p>Image what happens if AI robots are roaming the earth, causing all kinds of post-humanity questions, and nobody really understands what the fuck is going on anymore.<p>The future is probably both horrifying and glorious :D
