Love his analogies and clear eyed picture

"We're not building Iron Man robots. We're building Iron Man suits"

I'm old enough to remember when Twitter was new, and for a moment it felt like the old utopian promise of the Internet finally fulfilled: ordinary people would be able to talk, one-on-one and unmediated, with other ordinary people across the world, and in the process we'd find out that we're all more similar than different and mainly want the same things out of life, leading to a new era of peace and empathy.

It was a nice feeling while it lasted.

I believe the opposite happened. People found out that there are huge groups of people with wildly differing views on morality from them and that just encouraged more hate. I genuinely think old school facebook where people only interacted with their own private friend circles is better.
