Capitalism is a social technology, like language and money. It gives people a kind of power, but power can be used to both create flourishing and destroy life. (The AI paper clip problem is one example of a powerful technology let loose to solve for something destructive.)

AI, markets, money—all of these things have critical roles in human society. But what they are *put to work to do* depends on the *character* of the human societies that deploy them.

The *purpose* of technology is a *human* problem.
