This post was made with an AI tool from Casper Studios, developed by my friend Jay Singh. You can message him if you want to do a 30min live chat with him. He’ll take the interview and create content like this for you. In my work spearheading partnerships between governments and technology companies like LinkedIn, I regularly contemplate how to best measure genuine societal "value" generated by emerging technologies rather than mere economic "productivity." While some productivity growth can provide resources to enable human flourishing, over-focusing on efficiency metrics risks losing sight of the deeper meaning and fulfillment that technology should provide.
Really love this statement on getting the goals of technology and AI right. These things are tools and they can be used for good or ill. The most likely scenario is that a lot of companies that build AI solutions will focus on what they can build and sell. Aspirations for impact may play a part in that, but the risk is that those aspirations will be naive.
