Staying human in era of limitless tech
As technology becomes an integral part of our everyday lives, the dependence on artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and autonomous products, is also increasing by the day. We are at a brink of an erosion of basic skills as well as face many deep questions on how this technology explosion will affect humankind. The immediate concern to be addressed is the future of digital transformation, ethical responsibilities of technology companies and the importance of maintaining our humanity in the face of automation.
As technologies offer new and sophisticated capabilities, we become more and more dependent on them. This in turn makes technology perform human tasks more easily leading to “amputating the social skills we once had.”
