One of the most interesting ideas from Yuk Hui is that technology is the way we relate to the world through a moral understandig of it, which begs the question What kind of morals are there guiding technology today? Especially knowing how most of the tech billionaires switched from progressive to fascist in a hearbeat. Even that aside looking a EU policy makers, that are supposed to regulate the tech giants, I‘m not sure they have enough morals to go around. #technology #philosophy #EU #ai #musk

Everything is political. Everything is our responsibility. With these phrases we recognize that in turn 'we are beginning to depemnd on them' (serres) and that as a consequence the struggle for dominance will no longer designate a disguished group, a victor, a victor over others and nstead concern the the conflictual relationships we mainain with the world.... Instead we are now facing the kind of natural contract what will end such conflicts? #philosophy #politics

“The same is true of appetites and feelings of anger; some men become temperate and good-tempered, others self-indulgent and irascible, by behaving in one way or the other in the appropriate circumstances. […] states arise out of like activities.[…]. It makes no small difference, then, whether we form habits of one kind or of another from our very youth; it makes a very great difference, or rather all the difference.”
Nicomachean Ethics, Aristotle.
