In chapter 5 of “The Shallows” by Nicolas Carr, the subject of technology and its role in society as it grew and evolved comes into question. The chapter starts off by introducing Alan Turing and his role in making the blueprint for the modern computer. Turing, during his time, demonstrated the idea that a perfect system was highly unlikely and that there are general limits to the capacity that computers can operate from. In essence, the role of technology would be best used as a general interface. The chapter goes on show how technology changed the way people interfaced with and produced media. It also shows how technology became this new medium from which this information could be passed between people but also how began to change psychologically as a result of it. The transition from print to tech changed the dynamic that people would experience of reading as text became more short paced.
