Video shown in class

The video offered some interesting information , a bout just how vital computers are in our lives. I must admit the clip was rather confusing at first. The demonstration was a bit odd. A person could only become a slave to technology , by relying to heavily upon it. This is becoming quite a problem. Years ago during the infamous y2k , everyone was fearful of all the computers crashing. Their fears were unfounded. It is disturbing to see people in such a panic. It gets pretty bad, when the thought of a computer crashing will set people on edge. There are always other means of storing personal data. I often use paper to write down personal information and file it away for safe keeping. People should know that no technology is perfect. Since humans themselves are imperfect. A flawed creator can not create perfection.. Theories are often given on how technology will one day replace human functions . I don’t really see how this could be possible, since it takes a human mind to develop such technology. Unless they are stating that the creation will develop levels of abilities , which are superior to humans. Even then a human must be present to observe the machinery. In the event that there is some sort of malfunction. Howard 37
