We’re in a new age – a digital age.
We can see this new age by how Elon Musk influenced the US election, by influencing public opinion on the X platform and encouraging voting in certain swing states.

– The ability to shape opinion through media
– Code – and technology – this is how things are now done
– Hiring and working with people
Etc.,
