In the article “How Evil is Tech” written by David Brooks, he explains the three major critiques of big technology along with some resolution to advance it on a right direction. The first critique of the article discusses the impact of technology on youth admitting it to demolishing the young generation through less involvement and interaction.

going to be easy, and it may take while to accomplish them, but accomplishing them could greatly improve our society and our economy. People may be scared that technology is going to eventually going to take all the work away from people, and that it will end up hurting the economy. That is a possibility, but only if people let it be one. Technology can also help, and potentially make society better like it has done in the past. I believe that technology, like it has done in the past, will take…

forms may be abundantly absurd but still they must be attended to; for one half the world does and always will observe them, and the other half is at a great disadvantage if it does not .” As many of the rules and instructions of how to behave in society in the handbook seem quite frivolous or unnecessary, the authors describe it as a custom of the elite plantation culture and it is almost an honor to be able to participate in the customs. With…

Therefore, building off of the previously mentioned factions’ inability to change and adapt, rather preferring to stick to their own ways, Paul Atreides, in direct contrast to such stagnation, demonstrates the advantages of adaptation and how such behavior, in contrast to that of the Padishah, Guild, Bene Gesserit, and Fremen, allows him to ultimately thwart his death and better his own community. Rather than simply sticking to a certain viewpoint or dogma, Paul consistently adapts to new…

Azuma writes about his optimistic vision of the relationship between society and information. Azuma holds a strong belief that technology will accentuate political discourse and allow each individual to spread their ideas as far and wide as possible, creating an environment where an unconscious democracy can exist and reach its true potential. Azuma’s views however put too much faith in the individual and the cohesiveness of society. The ideas of General Will 2.0 fail to discriminate between…

America’s Gift to my Generation To be honest, I think we all can agree that my generation was blessed with some phenomenal advancements in education, technology, and much more. I believe the field in which we’ve had the most advancements has to be either in medicine or technology; so I’ll talk about both! Some pretty insane tech has been invented over the course of this past decade. We’ve had more entertaining inventions like the new gaming consoles that have been blessed with amazing…

with no conflict, no struggling. But is it possible for these worlds to ever exist? No, even though some people think a utopia can exist, it is not possible because of the fact that no one thinks exactly the same way. One of the ways that a utopian society is shown to not have succeeded is in The Giver. In The Giver, there are quite a few examples of how and why utopias always seem to fail. There are many parts of the book that talk about it not being worth giving up amazing feelings such as…

Use the Nautilus as an example of how scientific technology can be both good and bad. Cite modern day examples as well, such as stem cell research or nuclear technology. Should there be regulations to curb what scientists study and how they apply their discoveries to everyday life? There are many, many different types of scientific technologies; and not all of them can be good. To contradict, not all scientific technologies can be bad. In actuality, most of them are good, but can also be bad.…

I’ve had an uncomfortable sense that someone, or something, has been tinkering with my brain, remapping the neural circuitry, reprogramming the memory.” (Carr) This makes his tone less aggressive because he is now not only pointing out flaws in the society, but as well as in himself making the reader believe he is also on their side. By relating to the reader he forms a relationship that reads not as accusatory, but more relatable. If he had not added this personal analog his points could have…
