In The Question Concerning Technology, philosopher Martin Heidegger suggests that the way for humans to enter into a freeing relationship with technology is for humanity to unlock the dynamis of technology so that technology can unlock the dynamis of humanity. The message is: fear not! That is, don’t fear the solution, fear the problem. The problem is that we’re slaves to technology. There’s a solution for everything, except for this Sisyphean usage curse. We’re wasting our lives, squandering our creative potential, doing work that could be done for us. So, solve the usage costs problem!
