This is a moral / philosophical problem not technological one.

We have lots of things opposing each other: - democracy and majority vote vs minorities - solving 80% of problems efficiently vs ideal utopia

The world itself is biased, we are all biased, we all have different moral values. There is no definitive moral rule with which we could compare anything and easily say it's good or bad.

Conservatism isn't inherently bad just like openness to new ideas isn't. We usually need the right proportion of both to go forward.
