We Robots

While I agree with Turkle's thoughts about how we are a technology driven society now, I disagree with her reasoning for why we are and what this has turned us into. For example, I agree that instead of writing letters we send emails or update social media, but I disagree that we do these things to ignore socializing. I think the reason we chose technology over original means of conversation is because it is simply more convenient and faster in a sense. Why send a letter that will take a few days to arrive when you can just send a text or email that gets there in seconds. This is also why I agree with her point about how society either views technology as a Utopia or Dystopia, there is never a in between perspective that just views it as a new asset in our life. My generation has grown up in a very technologically advanced world, and I personally don't view it as a Utopia or Dystopia but just as a new tool available to me, which is what Turkle points out in the final paragraph.
