What is Kevin Kelly's central idea about technology?
My central idea is that technology is not a static entity but a dynamic, evolving force, almost like a living organism. I call this "what technology wants." It's not about conscious desire, but about the inherent trajectories and potentials embedded within technological systems that push towards complexity, intelligence, and greater interconnectedness. These forces operate whether we intend them to or not.
