Publisher Description

In The Unintended Consequences of Technology: Solutions, Breakthroughs and the Restart We Need, accomplished tech entrepreneur Chris Ategeka delivers an insightful and eye-opening exploration of the challenges and the opportunities at the intersection of technology, society and our planet. Detailing both positive and negative technology use cases that on one hand have made humanity better, but on the other hand pose a serious threat to individuals and groups across the world, the author demonstrates how to avoid allowing powerful technologies to overcome our better natures.

In this book, you'll: discover how the forces of capitalism, greed and the myths that surround meritocracy when combined with exponential technology pose an existential risk for humanity; explore the many exponential technologies such as gene editing, 5G, behavior modification, cyberspace . . . that have lots of promise but also uncertainty; consider the future of humanity we wish to collectively build, and whether we can rebuild a capacity for empathy at scale in our tech tools.

Perfect for founders, business leaders, executives, managers, Chief Technology Officers, and anyone else responsible for the use and proliferation of advanced technologies. The Unintended Consequences of Technology is a thought-provoking, must-listen resource for those at the forefront of our new technological reality.
