Om Malik wants you to know that the life of a global jetsetter actually is some sort of technology dystopia, but the thing I want to take issue with is the idea that all humans “desire to … get ahead”. I’m not sure most humans have any real conception, let alone goal, of getting ahead. I think most humans just would like, somehow, to manage to be self-sufficient. Arguably, thinking that, well, hey, doesn’t everyone want to get ahead is part of the very mindset that got us all into this mess to begin with.
