The tech industry is Goodhart's law-ing society.
- The tech industry is Goodhart's law-ing society.
- Because it's not thinking through the implications of its actions.
- It doesn't believe in the collective, only the individual.
- The tech mindset assumes "if a thing is short-term good for me it's also on net long-term good for society".
- But that's absolutely not the default case.
- The individual and the collective can never have their interests perfectly aligned.
