The pendulum has definitely swung in the opposite direction now. Social media coaxes people into believing they are "experts" in certain things and also encourages them to demonize anyone who has opposing opinions. I do think if we can get an AI trained to sort out the disinformation we'll be better off. How we keep it unbiased is another problem. The immediate future seems really tricky and confusing right now but I think we'll eventually figure all this out. The trouble is people who aren't close to this tech have zero clue what is coming and how deeply it will effect their lives. It's a pretty grand experiment and a lot is riding on it.

Yeah, the tech in general will probably be a barrier. There will likely be people who aren't interested in the tech or can't master it and they will continue down the same path. It will be interesting to see what happens!
It sure will be interesting. Hopefully good prevails. In a way it feels sort of like the years leading up to Y2K. Maybe this will be equally as uneventful.
Let's hope so! By the way, I did some research on RFK Jr. After you and I talked in a comment. His stance on Covid and vaccines in general is going to be a turn off for me. Back to the drawing board. At least I have a couple months. I absolutely respect your right to vote for whoever you want to of course.
I'm glad you checked him out! He's not for everyone. His stance on vaccines will be a sticking point with many. I've noticed recently that he's walked this back a bit, saying now he would support the requirement of proper rigorous testing before rollout. I hope you find a good choice that you're happy with. There's nothing worse than feeling like there are no good options.
That's for sure! I'll actually just not vote that part of the ballot if I can't find a good alternative.
That's always an option. I think our son might do the same.
