Is Google Making Us Stupid

Nevertheless, the only remedy is accepting change and adapting to the current situation. Information is vital and can be used to enhance innovation and development. Before the internet, getting information was a tedious task that was time consuming. However, with the introduction of the internet and search engines such as google, it is easy to pull any desired information from various sources in a matter of seconds. Carr points out that the internet has altered the reading habits of the people (Carr 144). It is unnecessary to suggest that we should stay away from technology. With the advancements in our daily lives, many tasks have been automated to make them much simpler to implement (Durbin & Friedrich 36). For instance, mobile banking has made money transfers and commerce much simpler by eliminating the tedious paper work from the traditional banking systems.
