I use a robot to reveal how invisible tech is reshaping you. Think you’re in control? Think again. https://t.co/Uc0ZDzfjrc #FacetunePortraits #AIArt #DigitalLife #TechAffectsUs

Aren't we supposed to have an attachment, or "addiction", to other people and not technology. People over tech.

A study showed that out of every 4 car accidents, 1 is caused by texting and driving. Thats 25 percent of accidents!

This makes me think that we would really bring our phones to our graves with us and that is the exact problem we need to avoid.

Technology is not only a good thing in mediation, but also one of the most dangerous things to our race if we are not careful.

Brain scans of people with tech addiction disorder are similar to those of people with substance addictions to alcohol, cocaine and cannabis.

The constant use of technology has shortened our attention span from 12 minutes to 5 minutes. Constant news feeds and videos that are 10 minutes or less has rewired our brains. People who are online an average of 5 hours a day have trouble remembering people's names.

If you are texting while driving, you are 6 times more likely to be in a car accident than you are if driving drunk. #TechAffectsUs

In 2017, 15,341 drivers aged 15-29 were involved in fatal crashes due to distraction or cell phone use. Do you want this to be your legacy?

Tech addiction may be a risk factor for alcohol and other drug abuse. People who overuse technology develop similar brain chemistry and neural patterning to those who are addicted to substances.

Have you ever been sitting on the couch and hear your phone vibrate or ring, so you pick it up, but there is no notifications. This is called the Phantom Vibration Syndrome and it has been caused by our attachments to our phones.

"We live in a culture where young people — outfitted with iPhone and laptop and devoting hours every evening from age 10 onward to messaging of one kind and another — are ever less likely to develop the 'silent fluency' that comes from face-to-face interaction"- Mark Bauerlein

These days, we have a world of information at our fingertips via the internet. While this is useful, it does have some drawbacks. Entrepreneur Beth Haggerty said she finds that it "limits pure creative thought, at times, because we are developing habits..." to use Google first.

Does anyone else worry about the fact that there is always glitches with technology. Imagine having a technology driven car glitch out on the road and people die because of it? Doesn't seem so cool now, huh?

Driverless cars are coming... how will they affect you? ACU's Prof. Jim Sallis speaks on the impact this new technology might have on human health and whether it will be negative or positive...

Students can't even study for a test about technology negatively affecting the human race because they're on social media. That is just ironic.

I SHOULD be studying for a test in a class about how tech is negatively affecting humans BUT instead I'm on Twitter/Reddit/Youtube This class seems to be a self serving prophecy. Professor MIGHT be a wizard. Can't say for sure

While this may be great to some, we need to look at the bigger picture, this is going to cause so many more people to lose their everyday jobs if this continues.

This is a great point that they make. All everyone wants now-a-days is more tech and younger, less mature engineers are getting jobs that could be affecting us.

There’s a malaise in tech: Humans work around 40 years of their lives but engineers with a mere 5 years of experience are given a “senior” job title. This leads to a lot of immaturity being imposed on culture and processes, ultimately affecting the quality of output.
