When you don't understand how things you use really work, you inevitably have to percieve it as magic and switch to magical thinking that in turn opens you to all possible kind of manipulation by those who behind your ignorance.
There is no any option - either you know how things work, either you believe in magic, witchcraft, and all that occult shit and so become highly wulnerable to manipulation and brainwashing.
Tech is the only truthful thing in our world. It can't lie or depend on lies. You can't build working car engine on lies, it will not work regardless of how many money and effort you spent on creating that lies. This is highly disturbing to those who want to thrive on lies, so they thinking out non-existing magical tech and sell it around, at the same time convincing people that they don't have to know how things work.
Now we have kind of worldwide occult sect of "consumers" repeating false basic dogma of that sect that "you don't need to know how thing work to use it". Consequences are all around.

I hammer on this point all the time. The only true science is engineering - application of math, logic and natural laws for building things that serve a specific function. Everything else is mostly propaganda, ungrounded speculation and myth-creation, aka scientism. Of course I wouldn't say tech is the only truthful thing in this world because God is the standard for truth and the ultimate truthful being and the truthfulness of everything is contingent on Him. But as far as the creation and science goes, I'd agree.
The computer is to AI what engineering and true science is to scientism. The notion of AI is based on some wild unjustified assumptions that have never been demonstrated empirically (and they never will, because those are presuppositions about metaphysics).

As for "EMF-absorbing crystals", here cactuses was popular for same purpose among office workers decade ago. It was fun when admins and programmers, as those who somehow accounted as more exposed to EMF radiation among the office workforce, received mostly catuses as birthday/new year/whatever gifts on corporative celebrations. However, some started great cactus collections and even get cactuses to regulary blossom. :)
Despite not having any specific EMF-absorbing properties, cactuses are nice and interesting plants. :)

Crazy Russian, you sound stressed. Burn some sage, touch grass, put some EMF-absorbing crystals in front of your computer. /s
