As counselors, parents, and community leaders, we learned the hard way over the last 20 years that accepting smart phones and social media led to an anxious generation with skyrocketing rates of childhood depression, anxiety, and isolation. The Big Tech companies that caused this problem are now offering to fix it: Mark Zuckerberg has suggested that in part, “AI could fill that void” of people having far fewer friends than they desire.
It may be the easy solution, but is it the right one?
Let’s not pretend: it’s not their friend.
Our next Coffee Chat event will address this dilemma. How much do we embrace technology versus how much do we let technology teach our kids?
