Definition: techno-utopian


A total believer in technology. Also called a "techno-optimist," techno-utopians think that technology will continue to make life better and ultimately solve the world's problems. Of course, AI proponents believe AI is the answer. Contrast with a "techno-dystopian," who has a negative outlook on current and future tech.

The bottom line: technology giveth and taketh. It delivers amazing capabilities but can also deliver exact opposite results. Social media brings us everybody's opinions, yet we cannot be sure what is true or false all the time. See Techno-Optimist Manifesto, Systemantics, technojunkie and technodeterminism.
