the social dilemma
Literally shocked after done with this documentary, I will recommend to all of you must watch, what it takes only 90 minutes from your busy schedule and spend it on this documentary, worths to watch.
We think we control our habits, our areas of intrest, our choices, our time but you must know in the first place, that everything is in control of social media and algorithm which produced or generated by internet. You are mere puppets of their trap, yes it's true and you can experience it from now on your mobile, which seems just a gadget but it controls our mind and turns it into a systematic follower of whatever they putting in from of your screen. All this things devastated the natural instinct of thinking (critical thinking), you are not evolving you are only involving in this traps which are perfectly made for you.
AI technology gives us guarantee of better future for comfortable surviving thats for sure but in my opinion, AI is not stands for artificial intelligence it's stands for ALTERNATIVE INTELLIGENCE which is ruining your privacy and take over your space without knowing you. Involving in social media is becoming or became a reason for anxiety, frustration and depression which leads to serious consequences for lifetime.
In this documentary former CEOs, workers, and staff of Google, Facebook Twitter, Instagram, explains us how they are catching your every bit of your time. Simply explaining you are not controlling social media but social media is controlling you I.e, technology which connects us also controls us. At the end of documentary Jaron Lanier gives a beautiful massage that turn off your mobiles notificacions and go out there is a beautiful world waiting for you, talk to the people communicate with them, hang out with them, explore yourself in real world rahter than virtual world.
I will recommend all of you must watch this and before this turn off your all notification so you can go there as per your time not by their demand. Finally a quote from this documentary..
"Social media isn't a tool that just waiting to be used, it has its own goals, and it has own means of pursuing them".
