Why Virtues are Important in a Technological World


Listen Later

In Episode 26 we will do a deep dive into Technology and the Virtues: A Philosophical Guide to a Future Worth Wanting by Shannon Vallor. This book is an expansion on the ideas she developed in her article "Moral Deskilling and Upskilling in a New Machine Age: Reflections on the Ambiguous Future of Character" that we explored back in Episode 7. This book argues the importance of virtue ethics as a framework to live the good life, then establishes a set of technomoral virtues to help us live the good life in today's technology-saturated world.
