Comments on: Week 3: Can We Auto-Correct Humanity? https://miriamposner.com/dh150w15/week-3-can-we-auto-correct-humanity/ Coming of Age Online Wed, 19 Oct 2016 13:07:17 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.9.26 By: abwrubel https://miriamposner.com/dh150w15/week-3-can-we-auto-correct-humanity/#comment-93 Thu, 22 Jan 2015 19:02:23 +0000 http://miriamposner.com/dh150w15/?p=434#comment-93 Face to face conversation also requires a set of skills that allow an individual to react and adapt quickly depending on the context or setting. Technological interactions offer a definitive means of communicating with one another that also maximizes the individual’s control over the situation. As human interaction becomes more and more abstract and less human, how will it affect the ways in which we use normal interactions as a means of subconsciously expressing our character and who we are? If we continue to over-use technology, would people become representations or signifiers of what is more human?

Regarding confrontation, I am by nature a pretty confrontational person, so I don’t use technology to replace face to face conversations. I do, however, use technology to solve my problems in a different sense- I go on anonymous chat forums when I feel lonely/ when I don’t have anyone to confide my troubles to, and read self-help articles when I don’t know how to deal with an issue I’m facing. Technology is almost like a vehicle/ shout box for me to resolve inner distress, and return to the “real world” in a much better state.

I myself am a very non confrontational person, and sometimes I find myself wanting to text someone asking if everything is alright, or talk about an issue over text rather than face to face. I also know many others who face the same problem. In that sense, I do agree that technology can hinder our personal interactions. A lot of people do this but don’t realize what is happening–that we are using technology to avoid confrontation. I can see technology in this way hinder our personal growth and development.

As a result, he got mad and wouldn’t pay attention to me. Trying to limit other people’s technology usage is a slippery slope.
