Why the future doesn't need us

Joy's thesis is that we rely too much on technology and that it will control us someday because of that weakness. We can start by slowing down with unnecessary advancements like better guns and planes or just weapon advancements altogether and focus on whats need like medicine. Institutions don't care about what's right or wrong or what is going to happen in the future they just care about now and how what ever they're doing is going to help them.

He would probably agree with Joy because we are becoming too technologically dependent which could one day be the end of mankind. He uses parts from books written by very respectable people to convey his message Yes he is a fear monger
