Never has man had so much information at his fingertips yet was so stupid.
Your post reminds me of when I started using a calculator in high school. I suddenly forgot how to do some math in my head. I had to discipline myself to not use that device for simple things, only ones that would take me several steps of complex math.
Then in college, we began to be allowed to bring certain calculators with us. That’s when the dependency on them ramped up.
We have these devices at our disposal, and now we can’t think on our own. The kids are taught to google it, instead of trying to figure things out on their own. No one knows how to think critically any more. I know I need to work at it myself.
Indeed!
