The source of distraction is not technology or the growth of AI and algorithms. Distractions have always been a part of our lives. But today’s distractions are different from those that existed 100 years ago.

It’s easier than ever to seek distractions today.

Distractions have always existed and will exist forever. Managing them is solely our responsibility.

It’s easy to blame technology for the problem of distraction. But technology is not the problem. Sure, the distractions around us are more than ever before. Algorithms and AI are trying to hack into our brains.
