The Case for Deliberately Slowing Down Technology
Original: The Case for Technological Foot-Dragging
A new essay argues that deliberately delaying the adoption of certain technologies can be a wise policy choice rather than mere obstruction. The piece makes the case that slowing technological rollouts gives society time to weigh risks, build regulation, and avoid harms that cannot easily be undone once a technology is widely deployed.
Why now: Ongoing public debate over the pace of AI and other fast-moving technologies is prompting arguments for slowing adoption.
