"The modern cage is not made of iron bars. It is built of likes, notifications, and the terrifying fear of missing out.... It is the inevitable result of the meeting between biology and scale."

His concerns about A.I. sound like the same recycled alarmism you typically hear from elites about the poor choices made by the unwashed masses. Underpinning the Orwellian belief that freedom is slavery is the notion that everyone else should value the same things that oneself values or else they are dupes or victims or prisoners. That is not to say that human connection isn't encumbered by the use of technology as a crutch, but such criticism tends to find it easier to blame the system which provides derided choices when that same system enables one to promulgate the choices he would like to see in the world. Does he want to use the present system to create something special that others can connect to, or does he just dream of some other utopian system that doles out Mr. Rogers-approved regimens while we all sit on our asses?
