Technology drives our societies but Ethics defines them: A short talk by #futurist Gerd Leonhard

Technology is morally neutral neutral until we use it (William Gibson).
Too much of a good thing (technology) can be a very bad thing.
Technology (in particular #ai ) knows the logic of everything but the feeling of nothing.
Ethics is knowing the difference between doing whatever technological progress will enable us to do, and putting human happiness and societal flourishing first.
Embrace technology but don't become it! #techvshuman

Pity the sound is so poor, which is normally excellent. Is it possible to fix or redo Gerd?

empathy is the most dangerous personality trait,
because empathy makes you want to protect those you care about
and sometimes protecting means using violence
