How many times have you caught yourself thinking about something else while someone was speaking to you? Was it embarrassing when that person then asked you a question and you couldn’t answer? Clearly, communication fails when listening does not take place.
Yes that has happened to me, however i did not necessarily find it embarrassing giving what they were talking about was boring. I was more embarrassed for them.
What do you think about driver-less cars? Would you feel secure riding in one?
I would not feel safe riding in one until they have had at least a year to fix all the kinks. I believe they are more of a safety problem because a machines reaction time is considerably different from a humans also fight or flight skills.
Do you agree that we are more anxious because we use old tools for today’s jobs?
I do not, because these tools were created to do these jobs. We are constantly innovating thus the "anxiety" question. This should give us a sense of comfort knowing something better will always come along.
