Social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter are changing our behavior. We are communicating more through these platforms, which means phone calls and text messages are becoming less popular. Online shopping is also causing a decline in traditional stores. Our towns and cities look different now because of what's available online. How does this affect our brains? Having a wealth of information at our fingertips is changing the way we work. Millennials, for example, tend to be more forgetful due to constant distractions from the internet. Memory is affected because new information prevents effective storage. We are also becoming addicted to our smartphones, constantly checking for messages and updates. This habit makes it harder for our brains to transition to deeper thinking. Furthermore, the constant flow of information is causing a loss of cognitive control, making it difficult to focus on what's important. However, technology's impact on our brains isn't necessarily a bad thing. Inventions throughout history have always changed how we think.
