>Technological development has basically reached its limit for the foreseeable future. Moore's law has long since run it's course, and chip manufacturers can no longer deliver upon the expectations that the world holds them to. They are scrambling to squeeze the last bit of silicon onto those little disks and praying to God that they don't burn out, this is why there's really a chip shortage.
>Similar thought: new technology is no longer a development upon, but a refinement of older technology. Theoretical Sci Fi tech such as spin launchers, super batteries, and cold fusion is waved in our faces as being just around the corner, but these things can never truly come to fruition. They're designed to keep up the impression that science still has value, and that the human race as a whole should continue to reject their faiths, their humble lives, and their basic instincts, in favor of pursuing something that will never be real or viable.

Old media is designed to uplift and make you feel happy. I've watched two movies via TCM and i felt a overwhelming happiness. I didnt realize how bad it had gotten. Media also promoted good cultural morals, having kids, family, duty and honor. I feel like im going crazy when i feel nothing at current day art
An AI will be better at telling the real info from the bullshit than a person. Also the NSA stores even encrypted information so they could decrypt later when the technology/new algorithms are available. So what today isn't a problem, can still fuck up your future. They have lots of metadata that they collate, information and patterns a human wouldn't even think about, yet a machine can derive more data from those. When a woman starts to get bombarded with online ads for baby products way before she realizes that she's pregnant, I think it's a really bad sign. How you use words/phrases when you write an e-mail, a machine can probably tell about your feelings, anxieties, etc. It can pick up on more details than a psychologist. And those things can be used. And those things won't be used for humanity. The best case scenario is that it is used for cold profit. What it does to your psyche, mind, non-profitable behaviour, is irrelevant. These AIs are out there, and they are either profitable or really useful for certain agendas
