Question the Illusion of Neutral Power

Power is rarely neutral; skepticism is essential towards entities that wield it. New technologies bring both opportunities and constraints, altering capabilities in ways that may not be immediately evident. While skepticism towards future risks, such as Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), is common, it is misguided to dismiss concerns simply as speculative fears. Acknowledging the affordances of technology implies understanding its dual nature—where new possibilities emerge alongside the loss of previous ones.
