No mention of radioactivity lasting 250,000 years, the impossibility of safe disposal of wastes, or the chance of catastrophic accidents. No mention of mind-numbing commercialization, or the global homogenization of consciousness and culture. Antibiotics were going to stop diseases, and have slowed some. But they've also caused antibiotic resistance in bacteria, and superbugs, raising new fears of unstoppable pandemics. That's apparently meant more for e-commerce titans and global corporations than anyone else.
Genetic engineering is supposed to replace pesticides, end disease, and also feed the world.
It's logical that marketers of technologies present only best-case scenarios. Corporations have no legal requirement and surely no financial stake in exposing worst-case scenarios. So the public is deprived of the information we need about the pros and cons of technical evolution. It's had a rougher time finding public approval since we understood its worst-case potential in the first moment we heard of it, at Hiroshima. This much is sure.
