#tech #inequality #economy #philanthropy

THINKING BIG

1. CEO: By 2050, I'm going to build a floating colony in the sulfuric acid clouds of Venus!

Woman on sidewalk looking at sign saying "Apartments for rent $3500/month": Looks like I'll be joining a homeless colony.

2. Tech bro: My chatbot will make life better with good advice!

Farmer in drought-stricken field, speaking into phone: Chatbot, what can
I do to save my farm from extreme heat?

Chatbot: NOTHING. YOU WILL DIE.

3. Tech bro in t-shirt advertising Snitcoin: I'm going to buy the island of Nauru, build a lab, and repopulate a post-apocalyptic earth with genetically-enhanced super children!

Woman with baby, thinking: Or we could just fund schools.

4. All three tech CEOs on a large boat about to run into a fisherman in a small canoe

Snitcoin guy: Sometimes I feel like our efforts to help humanity are unappreciated.

Venus guy: It's hard to be a visionary.
