1)
Nicholas Carr mentions that his
concentration is getting distracted after he reads more than two pages in the
web. Is really Google’s fault? Does Google have more negative effects than its
benefits?
2)
Refer to Nicholas Carr’s ‘Is
Google Making Us Stupid’, the scientific breakthrough such as internet makes us
to study only superficial knowledge and artificial intelligence. Is it true? Then,
are we getting stupid these days as continuous scientific development such as,
Smartphone?
3)
Do we need to stop using
Google? If we should, what is the solution that people can replace Google then?
In his essay, he refers not only negative
effects of Google, but also its benefits. However, he asserts that conveniences
by scientific breakthroughs let people to study superficial knowledge and
artificial intelligence. Internet made people not to have deep reading when
they read information such as, articles and news, and he is asking people to
agree with him to make his opinions strengthen. Someone might agree with him
that getting distracted their concentration when they read something in the web
and not to have deep reading than when they used to read through hard copied
book or paper. Does convenience really matter to people have less
concentration? Hard copied book is also made to share ideas and information for
as many people could share together. Internet has same sense of purpose. Thanks
to Internet, people could share great amount of information and their thought
very easily than before. It is true that people might get distracted by
excessive information in the web because there are many unnecessary information
only to have people’s attention such as advertising. It is a drop in the ocean
compare to the benefit of Internet. People can get more information that they
like to know through Internet. It was supposed to have more efforts to gather
the information to know without Internet. If people cannot have deep reading
than before, it is might because of their faults; they might have no desire to
read it. Of course, there are people who like to read something by hard copies
such as, book and newspaper. And if there are people who like to study about
something, they might be very thankful towards existence of Internet because it
is very quick and precise. People who think that Internet treats only
superficial knowledge and artificial intelligence might be used to conveniences
of internet and spend not enough time on search information they like to know.
