Bountolos stated that the main challenge regarding technology is not understanding the technology itself, but understanding what questions can now be answered more quickly. He argued that humans must be able to "orchestrate" a hybrid reality where they maintain judgment and criteria, and that with less exposure time they may have more responsibility and make decisions with impact.
