The difference between living and non-living things lies in their complexity. Living beings are more complex than non-living objects. Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins explains that mollusk cephalopods, such as octopuses and squids, changing their skin color in an instant is a deliberately performed life phenomenon. The intention may be for survival or warning predators. Being alive and having a life depend on this complexity. Humans are complex both physically and mentally because they are alive. To celebrate life is to embrace this complexity. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
With social media, we assume that we see and hear what we want to see and hear. But the truth is, we see and listen to what the system shows and listens to us. Uncontrolled systems distort inefficiencies and the purpose for which they were created. So the algorithm is loaded into the system. We do not enjoy freedom. It is only considered "free" in the context of control. - Joseph’s "just my thoughts”
