I wouldn't say google/the internet is making us "stupid" but its definitely making us more lazy. At minute 1:20, the student seems to agree that it makes us stupid but also makes us smarter. Going to have to agree with his reasoning in that the internet provides us with so much information, how could we get dumber.
Sorry for such delayed responses btw :/
I see where you are coming from but doesn't laziness breed stupidity?
ReplyDeleteWell, maybe stupidity isn't the word but the inability to think for ourselves because the information is there for us so there is no need for guesswork. This mentality causes us to be naive in our thinking and suffer from conformed ideology instead of individualistic thought.
