I don’t think a liberal arts education makes you a better person. It ought to enable you to more accurately describe things. […]
On the one hand, of course, no education will prevent you from putting your mind to really troubling purposes. At the same time, there’s a lot of thinking in Silicon Valley that is there to describe reality in a way that wouldn’t immediately seem plausible. […] It allows very wealthy men, usually, to escape confrontation with what they really are doing. […] There are all these tech CEOs who believe they are the victims of random meanies on Twitter. And you think, how can you be so blind so as to not understand what the power differentials are here?
These are philosophical ideas that allow them to do this, even if they’re not very good ones. The ideas allow for an obfuscation of reality rather than a more penetrating analysis of it.
