We are embarking on a journey to develop this technology that&#8217;s going to be the most impactful thing humanity has ever created.&#8221; Prosser coins the term &#8220;Dr. Manhattan Syndrome&#8221; to describe technology executives who use abstract &#8220;Humanity&#8221; rhetoric detached from concrete people.
