Computers process data and make predictions; humans create, judge, and connect. As technology spreads, we need to choose whether it enhances or replaces our humanity. Don't let social media likes substitute for calling someone you care about.

But two things come to mind. One is, I think we need to understand better the difference between humans and computers, that computers are really great at crunching big data and making predictions and giving us maybe insights into things. But humans are really great at the things we've already mentioned, like creative problem solving, knowing when to break the rules and the programming, and being able to connect emotionally with another human. As more technology creeps into our lives, I think we're gonna have to more and more make decisions about how we leverage technology to engage with our humanity and engage with the world, and make sure that we don't use it as an excuse to hide from it. To just stay inside and pretend on social media rather than calling your mom and actually talking to her and finding out what's going on rather than liking a picture. I think that's a big deal.
