I have noticed that my language skills and interpersonal skills have cratered in the past 8 years.
Sometime between the ubiquitousness of smart phones and the 'shoft form' content and 'feed' based education resources, I have noticed a loss of eye contact in approx. 30% of interactions with those who I am not familiar with, and I have noticed an increased frequency of missed or misspelled words.
The issue is not that I don't know they are wrong...I do not care as much to correct because I can rely on the tech.... I am definitely getting more reliant....so maybe that also is causing me to lose skills and not just replace them..
I should say... I am self aware...but not able to course correct without evicerating the tech
