Steve Jobs famously said that he saw the computer as a "bicycle of the mind." He saw technology as a tool to amplify humanity's abilities.

Mark Zuckerberg has chosen to build a "casino of the mind." Facebook and Instagram have been purpose-built to amplify and prey on humanity's weaknesses.

The fact that "Meta" is now trying to make their casino _even more_ addictive to compete with TikTok does not bode well for the world.
