The data paper for Techno-Optimism Archive is now published! All the data from the archive are publicly available on Zenodo, regularly updated, and open for research and other uses. For anyone interested in the methodological nerdy details, the paper explains everything. (all links in the comment)

Had a great conversation with @superglaze.eurosky.social on Tech Gets Real about my archive of techno-optimism. Thanks for having me! For Polish listeners, I’ll also be on Radio TOK FM this Monday. And I’m very happy that the archive reached 10,000 visits in its first two weeks!

Really enjoyed this conversation with @krystianlukasik.bsky.social about the Techno-Optimism Archive, which I can highly recommend as a reminder that hype around the new is anything but new youtu.be/XaTo-5Z7Ga0 @technooptimismarch.bsky.social

In the early 20th century, the telephone was advertised as a cure for loneliness - especially for rural women. Bit ironic today, given the links we now draw between phones and loneliness.

This is already a cool project, and with huge potential nonetheless. We need more focus on the history of ideas foundational for the digital age (see: Balbi et al 2021), and techno-optimism is chief among them

People once believed: – the telegraph would end war and prejudice, – moving pictures would make books obsolete, – the automobile would make people “too prosperous to fight”. I’ve built a digital archive of these kinds of promises. Techno-Optimism Archive

An article by M. Bylicki, E. Zawojska and myself has just been published in Technology in Society. We ask: Can stronger privacy protection for Facebook and Google users improve social welfare in Poland?
