Se esperamos cada vez mais da tecnologia, será que esperamos menos uns dos outros? Sherry Turkle estuda como os nossos dispositivos e personalidades virtuais estão a redefinir  a ligação e a comunicação humana  — e pede-nos para refletirmos sobre que tipo de ligações novas queremos.

Ligados, mas sós?

Mobile devices and social platforms have changed not just how people communicate, but who they become. A woman texting her mother before a talk feels warmth, yet these same technologies often lead to families distracted during dinner or friends together but focused on screens. Many now prefer texting over face-to-face conversation because it offers control and editability. As people seek comfort in machines and constant connection, they risk losing the ability to be alone and to listen deeply to each other.
