INTERVIEW

We wanted to know the opinion of young about technology, so we decided to do some questions to Nicolas ortiz. The following is the interview:

>Do you think in any way that the technology is changing your life style?

Of course, the technology is always right there, the TV, the cell phones, computers, Internet, it is a total distraction. My family and I have to watch TV just to have lunch together in the dinning room, or before I go to sleep I always have to check my phone to see the latest news on the Internet, if don’t, I can’t sleep at all.

>How is your social life surrounded by all this technology?

Sometimes it is exhausting because when you want some time to relax and be with your friends, the phone is always there, they are chatting or checking Facebook, or even just putting status where they are, whatever, so, sometimes I miss the old times, when you had the whole time to enjoy and to talk with each other and nothing else.

>Do you believe that technology is useful for work?

Yes, for me it is very useful, because with all this hustle in the office, you can’t always be aware of everything that happens around you, that’s why we have the technology, now we can do many things at the same time, if you have a problem you can fix it instantly and without hesitation. That’s how you do it now, because time is precious.

>Finally, what do you think about new generations growing with the technology inside, like a brain chip?

We have to be careful, because we found very important that kind of skills, but like I was saying, sometimes the technology makes people useless, so, our children must learn how to used and at the same time develop other skills, that is what will make them successful. Like Albert Einstein once said, “…I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction. The world will have a generation of idiots”. Those days might be arriving if we do not take care of our future generations. For some others now, we’ve already lost them.
