Blogging Assignment 7
I think the meaning of the first quote is that technology have the possibility to bring about bad results. No one can predict exactly how technology would make progress in the future. Therefore, there still is the possibility that it may suddenly result in a bad way. If this happens in reality, people would have to take responsibility in trying to change the bad result. Though the situation may be uncontrollable, people have to take some kind of action to take responsibility for what they have done. The way of taking responsibility may sometimes be improving technology. Therefore, it may also lead to another bad result and this flow is limitless. However, I think this is the way technology takes advance.

You hit on a key point, that of taking responsibility for what we create and/or control. The law of unintended consequences reminds us that we may not be able to see all of the results of what we do before we take action, but certainly taking responsibility for the consequences is essential to solving the unintended problems.
