Some long weekend thoughts...belonging is older than language. As our tools get smarter and teams smaller, the question isn’t what we can build alone—but what we risk losing together.
Being a poetry person, I love the fact that you are always guided by your poetic instincts in reflecting on the state of our future. Technology brings efficiency but it is also increasing the distance between real physical connections and virtual remote connections. Humans will always prefer the former in my humble opinion. Speaking solely for myself, I will always prefer holding a physical book and touching a real piece of paper. There is something magical in the smell of physical books vs reading from a screen without a particular smell associated with each book. I am old and biased of course.
