How would society adapt to superpowers?
Sources:
Jordan Harbinger and Tobias Rose-Stockwell discuss the societal adaptation to superpowers through an analogy of receiving the superpower of invisibility. Initially, there's awe and excitement, but it soon devolves into chaos with widespread looting and fear. Eventually, society adapts through measures like infrared cameras and new laws. The analogy parallels how society adjusts to new technologies, like smartphones and social media, which also create upheaval before being integrated effectively 1.
