Black Mirror Becoming a Reality

Anytime I see advancements in the technology world, I can usually make a reference back to the Netflix series Black Mirror. Each episode takes a far advanced piece of technology and shows how it is essentially destructive to the purity of life. After reading the article on Google, Facebook and Amazon making advances to actualize artificial intelligence - it may at first seem like a cool new idea to make 'life easier' with having robots do our work for us. However, I personally find it to be catastrophic as it does feed into the lazy nature of humans. The fact that smart technology is already installed in our phones (Google knowing where I go) and in things like Alexxa and Nest seems minor but I do see these pieces of technology being magnified in a scary way. Data can be helpful as much as it can be destructive.
