Technology is changing the world in unprecedented ways. It is automating jobs, disrupting industries, and reshaping our social and political landscape. But are we prepared for the consequences of these changes? In his new book, Wishful Thinking, technology expert Kevon Gulley argues that we are not.

Gulley explores the ways in which technology is shaping our lives, from the way we work and communicate to the way we think and feel. He argues that we need to be more thoughtful about how we use technology, or we risk losing our humanity.

Gulley begins by examining the impact of technology on the workplace. He argues that automation is not just eliminating jobs, but it is also changing the nature of work itself. As more and more jobs are automated, we will need to find new ways to create meaning and purpose in our lives.

Gulley also explores the impact of technology on our social and political lives. He argues that social media is creating echo chambers, where we are only exposed to information that confirms our existing beliefs. This can lead to polarization and a decline in civil discourse.

Gulley concludes by arguing that we need to be more mindful of the ways in which technology is shaping our lives. He calls for a "digital detox," where we take breaks from technology to reconnect with the real world. He also calls for more education about the impact of technology on society.

Wishful Thinking is a timely and important book that challenges us to think more deeply about the role of technology in our lives. Gulley's insights are essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the future of technology and its impact on our society.
