""Kids in the US and the UK were 3x as likely to want to be YouTubers or vloggers as astronauts, while kids in China were more likely to want to be astronauts."..." Tech's race-for-attention creates a culture of fame-seeking, narcissism, and "who's the most popular of them all?" and that's a threat to the West's competitiveness with China. We're happily amusing ourselves to death with fame-seeking while we fall irreversibly behind. That's why we need to transition to humane technology that decouples success from how addicted each person is to getting attention from other people. More info: * A recent survey of 3,000 kids found that being a YouTube star was a more sought-after profession than being an astronaut among kids in the US and the United Kingdom. * Children ages 8 to 12 in the US, the UK, and China were recently polled in honor of the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission, which resulted in the first person to walk on the moon. * Kids in the US and the UK were three times as likely to want to be YouTubers or vloggers as astronauts, while kids in China were more likely to want to be astronauts." https://www.businessinsider.com/american-kids-youtube-star-
