Google is probably the most well-known search engine around the world. It makes things so much easier for us in life. Whether you want to know the mass of the sun or how to bake a cake, a quick Google search can answer practically any question. Life is so much easier since we can find the answer to any question in a matter of seconds by doing a quick search on your phone.
I think that we do not need to learn everything. Before these massive search engines existed it might have been helpful to know how old a celebrity is or how to spell a certain word, but Google knows all. I personally use Google everyday whether I’m looking up some random fact or to prove a point about something.
So the question I want to ask you is do you think Google makes life easier, or does it make us dumber? It might be true that Google and the internet are both wonderful things, but maybe having these tools by our side at all times makes us inherently dumber. Learning is always going to be important, but maybe it is not as important to our generation. What are your thoughts?
