@kerryebates It’s a scary thought and though we understand the perils of the monitoring of tech companies, we are prey to the addiction of social media and the need for knowing what is going on in everyone else’s lives.
@STrimpert I can resonate with you! Social media is a part of society now and I agree with you that it’s hard to turn off your devices when you have so much information and fun content available. It's a balance, but it is hard to discern which line is good for you.
@jaimipatell I totally agreed! Disruptive technologies are now so prevalent in our every life that we, as the users and creators, need to adapt and fit in with the new social norms to stay relevant.
My biggest takeaway from this class is this new "framework" prosumption where the producing and consuming of goods and services have redefined the new modern tech life and also empowered the consumers to do more than be a consumer.

@AndrewJEpstein1 VR has the capability to advance everyday life, activities, and work, which could radically change the reality we see every day. Life and technology are evolving constantly as VR devices become more advanced, accessible, and affordable.
@kerryebates Famous figures, influencers, and TV programming will continue to propel the “need��� for voice-assisted devices, like smartphones, computers, cars, and even in restaurants, airports, airplanes, and the armed forces.
@MarkCher01 Though we extol technology and AI, this is such a scary thought that robots could be smarter, faster, and better than humans. Instead of eliminating jobs, companies should invest in protecting their employees and be a part of the new technological change to better innovation.
Virtual reality technologies, like the Oculus, have been and will disrupt society in all degrees, levels, and realms, because of the unprecedented, exceptional, and unpredictable nature of innovation. #DigiTechS22A

@brizzegil Hi Bri! Body image regarding the negative sides of social media is a crucial and relevant topic that is recently neglected. These influences change people’s well-being and analyzing this phenomenon is a great idea to dive in!
@jf1037RU The metaverse has opened a new avenue of digital reality and allows users to enjoy themselves as avatars. This new technology has definitely shifted and disrupted the reality we knew before this new technology.
My EDTP project is about the Oculus, a virtual reality headset, for digital gaming and entertainment. Our physical reality and virtual world are incorporated, and I am fascinated by this four-dimensional world in this computer-simulated world. #DigiTechS22A
