I've jotted down my latest thoughts, hopes, and predictions for tech in 2023. I want us to treat Elon like the fictional "welfare queen" of the 1980s. I want a reckoning for AI systems built on wide-scale looting of human labor and creativity. And I literally dream about Zuckerberg blowing all his resources on his version of "the metaverse." What are you looking forward to in 2023 tech?
I'd like to see a serious U.S. legislative reckoning with data collection by _all_ tech companies, not just the backlash against TikTok.
As multiple high-profile hacks, leaks, and abuses suggest, every accessible repository of personal data is both a privacy and a national security threat.
Minimal collection should be the default, not just a privilege for the knowledgeable and monied.
@Patienceltd @baratunde I'd like to see it for all data repositories, not just tech companies. As someone whose data has been scooped up everywhere from stores to banks to the federal government, I've gotten a little gun-shy about telling anyone anything.
