Decline of natural intelligence and victory of IA

Social networking might have its advantages, but more often than not it’s a mind-boggler.

I’ve found that when I post a photo of food, my face or the face of the person who shares my life, with very little text, on a social network, I ‘get likes’.

On the other hand, a poem or a text about what I’m feeling with my gut, apart from four or five good people, nobody leaves a trace of a passage…

The clicks, the likes, has become an automatic gesture when scrolling through images on a mobile phone. Liking has become a kind of minimal presence duty. A way of showing that you’ve been there and seen it…

We read less and less and we think less and less, apart from trying to understand how to use algorithms to get more followers, but the mind, the real spirit, the one that makes us human is freewheeling, elsewhere, far from all that…

…which is probably why artificial intelligence is progressing in proportion to the decline in our own.
