Cory Doctorow Speaking Topics

Heed Not the Autocomplete Worshippers

"Criti-Hype" is the cardinal sin of technology critics • that's when you take the outlandish claims of the tech industry at face value and criticize them as though they were true: "Holy moly, these evil wizards have invented a superintelligent computer god! Whatever shall we do?"

There are real problems with AI, but Skynet isn't one of them. The real problems have to do with automating bias, exploiting workers, destroying the environment with pointless, computationally intensive work, and distracting us from the real potential • and problems • of life in the digital age.

We don't have to accept the claims of mediocre tech bros at face value to condemn them for their misdeeds. It's okay to call them out for monopolies, labor exploitation and bias-laundering without worrying that they have unleashed a transhuman immortal demon that will devour the Earth in its quest to turn us all into paperclips.
