Description
* Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes.
*By reading this summary, you will discover how the development of new technologies has an influence on our lives, our relationship to the world, and even on the construction and exploration of our identity.
*You will also discover that : the frontier between the real and the virtual is constantly blurred and fuzzy; robots tend to have a major place in our daily lives; we seem to undeniably get caught up in the game of interaction with robots if we get the chance; social networks are changing our perception of sociability and friendship; technology has changed our lives dramatically; this should attract our attention and invite us to adopt a critical attitude.
*Technology is part of our lives, part of our daily lives. Technology can sometimes give rise to surprising attitudes. For example, we might send an S.M.S. to someone in the next room, when all we would have to do is move a few meters away to talk directly to them. It can also be about groups of friends, physically all together while everyone is on their smartphone, attention elsewhere. What is virtual is now familiar to us, to the point where we feel more comfortable in a virtual space than in a real one. In this hyper-connected world open to technologies, the place of robots is growing, and seems natural. However, they promise relationships that we do not master. In this summary, you will learn to better consider our current relationship to these networks and machines, developing a critical approach to what might seem banal and inevitable.
