“If we accept that technology is simply beyond our control, we cede our future to engineers, corporate leaders, and venture capitalists. Some might pin their hopes on the market, thinking that it will look out for our interests, deliver the technologies we want, and weed out those that are not useful or might even do harm. But the market is good at some things and not at others. It rewards profit without regard to social consequences. It prizes efficiency while ignoring other values. It celebrates domination. These priorities are encoded in the algorithms that power new technologies, the metrics that drive company strategy, and the regulatory environment that governs what companies may and may not do.”
