A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

It's using endless electricity and water to perform tasks I could do powered by a bowl of cereal in the morning. I'd rather need one solar panel than ten, and a river rather than a dried up well, personally, but ever increasing energy demands require the latter two.
If by accelerating you are referring to making the problem worse so we have to deal with melted ice caps sooner, then I agree! I for one don't really trust turbo predictive text to solve the collapsing jet stream, but I sure do expect it to play a part in causing it. Or maybe just the extraction of increasing material from colonized countries to pay for our funny memes and your "art" through solar panel and battery. Either way, it is contributing in a very real way to the destruction of our planet for little gain that could be achieved more efficiently by other means.
The cool part about a smartphone is I actually wanted it and it did a thing nothing had before (except some PDAs maybe). Also living without one is very possible and I do so frequently, I'm not a chronic poster or social media user. Machine learning with a gui on it is neither something I wanted nor is it novel, and it is not improving the world we live in, it is making it worse.
The saving grace is this fad will pass as it becomes clear it's the same as home automation, block chain, machine learning, the concept of web domains, etc. and it's mostly been hype by tech investors all along. I would care about it a whole lot less if it weren't so full of negative externalities.
