  1. In simplest terms - they want to believe in a future Don't forget we live in a world with a very uncertain future. Nobody actually knows what specifically will happen with climate change but we all know it will be hard times ahead. Then add in that we all know our political leaders are owned by the billionaire class. What do you think's driving both this type of blind belief that technology will save us or what's the rise of religious fundamentalism? There are people who really think Elon is going to take them to Mars in the next few years and save them from climate change. What does that sound like? FYI - I am an engineer. I did a degree in aerospace but work in automation, robotics and control systems. See those Yellow robots around 10 minutes. Those are Fanuc's a Japanese brand that I am trained on. There is real genuine frustration in the engineering world these days. There is so much misleading PR being pumped into the soft skulls of a gullible population its almost a full time job for some people explaining that the PR is just PR and ITS NOT FACT. Think about how many amazing technologies people promised that NEVER came into fruition. Where's Mark Zuckerberg's Libra (now called Diem)? What about nuclear fusion, faster than light travel or my favorite flying cars? In particular there's a staggering amount of ignorance regarding robotics and automation. Automation rarely costs anyone their job. Usually it saves jobs by making people more productive. Nobody packs up a company and moves it to China AFTER they spend money improving their production. Robots cannot think. They do as they are programmed to do. You program them to move in certain patterns and they do that again and again and again day in, day out within a defined accuracy. They don't complain or get sick and can work in the dark 24/7. They are great for repetitive tasks and totally hopeless for abstract tasks.
