Comment on We Have Reached Peak Screen. Now Revolution Is in the Airparent

Comments

I disagree with Bret for fundamental reasons. I think Bret is trying to make computing more human, when I view computing as fundamentally unhuman. It seems that there is an inverse correlation between screen use and mental health. Bret's solution is to improve our technology. My solution would be to limit our use of technology. Computers are fabulous for certain things: transmitting information, processing data, automating repetitive things, but they're awful for many others. I worry that by trying to make our interactions with computers more human we're just going to become more dependent on them.
