World Economic Forum Futurist: ‘We Just Don’t

Quote:

Here’s a thought experiment: you own a factory, which you operate for the sole purpose of enriching yourself.

What do you do with old equipment after its usefulness expires, when you purchase new, more efficient tech? Do you cling to it with a sentimental attachment?

Or, out of practicality, do you ship it off to the proverbial glue factory, like the ruling pigs in Animal Farm literally did to Boxer the horse when he became too old to work – even after all he had done for the farm?
