Technology has enabled us to enjoy modern communications and digital infrastructure, but it has also created concerns about cyberattacks, privacy, bias, and energy consumption. To maximize the pros and minimize the cons, industries and governments should set limits, and innovators should use technology to fight technology. Cybersecurity is an example of this, as machine learning can be used to bolster defenses and identify attacks faster than any human security analyst can. Quantum computing is another example, as it could be used to break existing cryptography.
