DE-EVOLUTION THROUGH TECHNOLOGY
As we embrace technology and its conveniences, we may also be unwittingly de-evolving as a species. The more we rely on technology, the more our innate abilities, like memorization and physical endurance, may fade away. The loss of these skills raises concerns about the potential long-term consequences of our dependence on technology.
When humans become overly reliant on external sources of information, such as search engines or digital platforms, they may neglect the importance of developing their own knowledge base and critical thinking skills. If we rely solely on accessing information rather than possessing it, we become easily replaceable because we lack the depth of overstanding and independent problem-solving abilities that come with internalized knowledge. As technology continues to advance and automate various tasks, the value of possessing specialized knowledge and skills becomes increasingly important. To remain relevant and less susceptible to being replaced, it is crucial for individuals to not only access information but also actively engage in learning, critical thinking, and the acquisition of practical skills. By balancing access to information with the development of internalized knowledge, we can position ourselves to adapt and thrive in an ever-changing world.
