It feels like your implicitly framing is that one should welcome technological progress and be active about adapting to it, but I’m lacking the perspective that one (sometimes) should be active about shaping the course of progress itself.
Also, most of the time people who are seriously discussing a matter likely don’t talk about whether a technology is good or bad as a whole, but refer to the way it’s currently being realized in the world, so that seems like a strawman.

Sure, we should certainly be active about shaping the course of progress.
