by Viking in New York states that these days our minds depend more on the internet rather than ourselves. Gerd Gigerenzer explains that technology interrupts our life in more ways than one. He supports a minimum technology use lifestyle such as checking your email once a day and only using technology when people is not around others Firstly, the greatest invention to affected human mental life is writing. Writing has affected our long-term memory by impairing it. We no longer have to memorize things like stories because they readily available in print. As mentioned in article, writing has replaced the art of memorization. Secondly, technology is affecting our social skills. Take for example, such as persuasion and conversation have been lost to technology. Instead of going to go to library to find information the same data can be found online without any human interaction. In addition, another factor that has affected out learning lifestyle is the internet. Gerd Gigerenzer compares the internet to a huge storage room of information. We now use storage room as a replacement for our minds and thought process. The internet becomes step by step outsourcing our mind. In the end, our minds will give in to technology completely until a new happening comes to our life style which will outsource out current technology.
