naught and one' algorithms.
I type to the beat.
When I saw this picture it immediately made me think of how humans have evolved in interfacing with tech in the age of the microchip. If you think about it, all those cyberpunk movies that posit the idea of technological human augmentation and AI synthesis are looking more and more prophetic. This Haiku kinda reflects my ambivalence in how this evolution is going. #
Is the general population's analytical capacity being watered down through increasing reliance on technology? I think it's a valid question in this day and age where a large proportion of people get their news from social media. Or, do you think that our instant access to the internet, through our phones, is increasing the human capacity for analytical research? Let me know in the comment section 🙂
This is day twenty six of my month long challenge - from the 06th of August until the 06th of September - to post a daily Haiku on steem. Each week will have a different theme based on picture prompts from either Pixabay.com or Unsplash.com. This week's broad theme is technology.
I have created a new tag #monthofhaiku. If anyone wants to replicate the challenge please feel free, I will check the tag occasionally and try to curate the better Haiku. However, this is not meant to be a challenge to the writers' community. I am away in Yorkshire at the moment with no access to a computer and limited internet. Please, forgive me if I'm slow to respond to comments, as I will only be checking my phone (and partiko) occasionally while away. This weeks Haiku are being published via @steempeak using their fantastic scheduling feature.
