Chomsky is asked about Enlightenment Now where Chomsky praises Pinker as an intelligent guy who has contributed to the field of psychology but disagrees with his current books. He then criticizes EN by referencing a book by Robert Gordon along the same lines as Pinker but giving a very different narrative of progress that, among other things, is disconnected from economic growth and a simple view of technological progress. A comparison Chomsky makes is that real improvement in quality of life was accomplished by indoor plumbing but not by advances in computer technology.
