Something we have to face

The problem is presented in the time of a film.

At the beginning, I even questioned whether the research I did was eventually reduced to a tool for capitalists. But I think, at least I'm always using this knowledge to make the world a better place. In addition, AI cannot lead to the regression of civilization, because human beings still have the psychology of progress. When they realize that someone is using their psyche to make them worse, they dump him and become more rational. Only by helping human beings can AI have a better tomorrow.

The indifference of modern people may be built up after being exploited.

But some shots are so real, people are curled up on their phones to pay attention to comments. It's like being stared at by 10,000 pairs of eyes, but in fact no one really cares as much as you think.

    It is quite convincing to invite a group of former high-ranking social media officials to appear in person, and the progression of the narrative level is relatively clear, but it is very funny to simulate the virtual space operation by real people. There is no qualitative change in the evolution of the brain structure. In the unprecedented rapid development of science and technology, there is obviously some kind of unfortunate disconnection. However, if you think about it, if you take off this high-tech coat, isn't it another version across human history? Truman". The core ideas about being occupied by social platforms, distracting attention, and being easily misled by fake news are not original, but we should study how “algorithms” sneak into thinking from browsing traces/habits/time, accurately locate personal preferences under the blessing of big data, and invest in What it likes to push and guide until it changes the concept and mindset of real life, and achieves manipulation without revealing traces - "Any sufficiently advanced technology is similar to magic", it is still chilling to think about. After watching this film, I took a look at my screen usage time and froze again. Can we still wake up from the matrix?

    There are so many "previous xx" platforms, most of the time, with a face of "you know" and a sigh, what's the use? The analogy between drug user and social network user is simple and crude, just for brainwashing. The data support is pitiful, and how to break the game is not mentioned. The fact is not well done, and the point of view is not established. For a documentary of this level, 30 minutes is enough.
