There's a very fine line between one person's reality and another person's fantasy.

I think there can be a positive sort of futurism even in a presentist society. But I think it's a kind of futurism that envisions augmenting human ability and intellect rather than creating some artificial machine intelligence that displaces us.

Douglas Rushkoff
