These are some big names in the tech world, all framing the conversation in a very specific way. Rather than “is this the future you want?”, the question is instead “how will you adapt to this inevitable future?”. Note also the threatening tone present, a healthy psychological undercurrent encouraging you to go with the flow, because you’d otherwise be messing with scary powers way beyond your understanding.
the only trick in the book [of debating], once you boil it all down, is to make sure the conversation is framed in your terms. Once that happens, it’s all over bar the shouting.
