I am 47 and i acknowledge this is going to sound a bit negative.
I am self taught in I.T and computers.
I've never taken to mobile phones, i find them intrusive, annoying and if i need to do something important I use my computer with a screen as i am now.
If i wish to switch a light on i don't need to ask a digital assistant to switch it on for me i use my finger
on the switch, although if i was disabled I'd probably find that useful.
Soon we will have self driving cars, isn't that called a Taxi and available now?
Well it's not all bad, i do enjoy my wireless mouse and keyboard and my super fast broadband.
Also i like ordering my repeat medical prescriptions online, now that is useful.
online banking is brilliant. i remember the days of having to go all the way to the bank to cancel a direct
debit but now its a click away, as is ordering anything you wish to your door.
So its obvious my current relationship with technology is mostly but not all, negative.
what say you? .....
