Edward Tenner talks about simply exactly how the conflicts of this “2nd age of [electronic] efficiency” regard back to the problems of the “extremely initial age” of mechanical efficiency, from the 1870’s to the 1930’s. As commercial economist Henry George created in 1879: “The existing century has actually been kept in mind by a vast increase in wide range- creating power.

Edward Tenner -The Efficiency Paradox Audio Book Download Or maybe the Britons Brexited and also the Americans Trumpeted for various other factors having absolutely nothing in any way to do with computer system systems, the internet, or fake information? 2 queries, afterwards:.

Substantial questions: Did Britons as well as additionally Americans disobedience versus their Center elites considering that they shed their work because of computer system automation as well as additionally were mad at being unemployed?

Little questions: did Britons in addition to Americans rebellion versus their Facility elites considering that they were snookered by “phony information” online?

Simply just how can we educate them NOT to think whatever they see on their computer system when it down lots an un- vetted internet web page?
