It's software that lets you move people from a video feed, to a kanban "target" board, to a grave. Is this what we wanted from our tech careers? I'm just old enough to remember when we thought tech would help people; not just help kill them.
The most brilliant minds of this generation work on ads, crypto gambling and assassination systems.
