Is the Internet killing our brains?
There is a common opinion that the Internet may negatively affect our minds. I totally disagree with this statement. I am inclined to believe that our brains are able to constantly develop and adapt to any conditions and the Internet can help us to become more efficient.
It is our human nature to keep thinking all the time, looking for new information, finding new problems to solve. The Internet is just another means of getting access to more information. Some people worry that it is "information overload" that threatens our mental health, but the human brain does not process every single thing that is perceived with our senses. Instead, it filters the incoming information choosing the most important and relevant things.
Most experts agree that our use of the Internet helps us become smarter and more efficient. It is not making us dumber – on the contrary, there is evidence that using the Internet actually stimulates our mind.
In short, the idea about a dumbing effect of the Internet on our brains seems to be a myth as the human brain keeps developing and the use of the Internet may actually help enhance our cognitive functions.
