Hi, thank you guys all so much for the responses to the survey. Unfortunately, I did not know that surveymonkey only allows me to see 100 of the responses? I have gotten around 147 and I am very glad with that number. That being said, I’m going to update the link to a brand new surveymonkey link, but it will be exactly the same survey. I just want to have more than 100 responses to get more variety I have also added another optional question just because I was curious Also I didn’t want to stop this so early (I wanted to do it for a week and not 2 days haha). To clarify, you do not have to take both surveys to have a chance at winning a life pot, but doing so will be greatly appreciated Thanks again, and for those who were asking, here are the results for the survey so far :
- How will technology affect our future?
21% - It will lead to the downfall of humanity
56% - It will help flourish the advancement of mankind
23% - Not sure
Personally, I would have also chosen the second option because of how many people in today’s society are reliant on technology to do everyday tasks. But in the future, with our rapidly increasing advancement on technology, it’s hard to predict how we will be able to tutor it to our benefit, especially on global conflicts such as global warming. I am a sort of optimist and hope that technology will bring the prosperity that it has already brought in the past, like many inventions (most notably the Internet). Today our technology is already very advanced, but we can still push further. Then again, there is the other option that world leaders will abuse technology and cause a potential all out war. In the past this has also happened before, like using chlorine gas (a fairly new technology at that time) during WW1. Only time can tell how we use the technology and if we use it effectively.
- How much screen time/technology do you use daily on average?
2% - Less than an hour
17% - Between 1 to 3 hours
46% - Between 3 to 8 hours
35% - 8 hours or more
These results are not too surprising as the gap is understandable. There were more in the 4th category than I would have thought, but then I realized that some people work with technology (computers) as a day job and that would bump their usage time up. I personally am in the 3 to 8 hour category as I have school and use my PC after.
Not sure if anyone will read this far but if you have, kudos to you And sorry for writing this essay on a casual forum page haha!
