      • What is the link between acceleration, money supply, and inflation?
        • See George Simmel

      • Is the acceleration of society making people happier or giving more meaning?
        • What are the fundamental elements of subjective well-being?
        • Is it possible that accelerationism is really good at meeting people's basic needs for survival, but terrible for meeting people's deeper needs for human connection and meaning?

      • As technology evolves more quickly, will generational differences increase? If so, what are the implications of that?
