    1:12, Machines do not dehumanize learning in the sense that people just eat up information from a soulless computer, machines ANARCHISE learning. I have seen it happen that when a teacher leaves the students alone with a computerized assignment, they will not do it, but just find it as a time to slack off and act silly! That was my whole science class for one year and that environment should not be replicated if we want children to have any sense of authority in the long run.

    Probably means everybody gravitating to their computers. A new sense of gravity invented. It's hard to find a teen not on their iphone.
