Technology Subdued Us

 

The year is 2024, and tech is at its peak. With Artificial intelligence at par with software programs like Chat GPT, Google Bard, and the rest, they are all here to stay. It is such that technology sort of subdued us after robbing us blind. This is a case similar to the one in which whites cornered Africans and led them into Christianity using things like mirrors. In this article let us look at how original things were beforehand before the coming of great minds like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. Even the movies had that taste of being a fictional entity. I remember in my young days of five and six years watching Rambo and Commando. Such movies gave you the chills and the thrill of movie watching. Seeing how Anorld in Commando roughed up guys his size for the sake of his loved one. That is indeed a classic movie. However, with the wake of AI making movies, the original feel and touch fade away like sand in the desert. 

Taking a look at leaders such as Fidel Castro and Muammar Gaddafi. These iconic leaders built their empires by word of letters and supremacy. They did not go to Twitter like former United States President Donald Trump to rant about private national affairs. it was during his tenure that there was an invasion at Capitol Hill, and everyone used social media to their advantage. leaders like Castro regardless of the brutality, administered during a time when tech was not a global affair as it is now. Regardless of its perks, we need to be careful with our engagement with technology lest we forget our true personalities and character. 

It is in this light that I adhere to the constraints of digital well-being. Let's do an experiment, go to your phone settings and check your digital wellbeing status. Look into the apps you consume a lot of time on and configure your time accordingly. During your spare time, you can also read a book!
