Introduction
Jeremiah Johnson: Is our society's future technological path already predetermined, or can we influence it? And if we can, how should we shape how our technological progress happens? Joining me this episode are D'Rane Asamoglu and Simon Johnson. They are the co-authors of the new book Power and Progress about how technology, growth, and inequality intersect. We discuss their idea that technological growth does not automatically lead to material gains for normal people.
