| Summary: | The article offers the author's insights on the reliance of people to stone tablets or Post-it notes to remember things, the impact of internet on a person's episodic memory, and the recording of one's memory and experiences on phones or computers. She says that her private digital memories have become restructured data, copied, and monetised by internet firms. She mentions the comment of David Chalmers, a philosopher, on the extended mind and the use of technology. |
