“I wonder if the idea of having all knowledge so easily available has made us intellectually lazy. I’m not the first to worry. Socrates objected to the invention of writing. He thought it would erode memory. He quoted from the wisdom of King Ammon, who said to the Egyptian god Theuth, the inventor of letters, ‘this discovery of yours will create forgetfulness â€� they will not use their memories; they will trust to the external written characters â€� they will appear to be omniscient but will generally know nothing; they will be tiresome company, having the show of wisdom without the realityâ€�. We can so easily be misled into thinking we have knowledge when actually often all we have is data.”
