Nowadays, the internet allows people to search up any information. Some people argue that humans will not have to remember anything in the future. I disagree with this statement as learning new things strengthens the memory and the internet isn’t always reliable.
Firstly, learning new things helps strengthen our memory and improves our ability to think. For example, when students learn new dates in history or new formulas in physics, they train their brain and become better at remembering and storing new information. As a result, this helps them recall new information and build connections between them. This develops the brain in a way that the individual no longer needs to look the information up on the internet.
Secondly, the internet isn’t always within reach. People may lose internet connection or servers might face a technical problem. These problems may occur more than usual as the number of internet users has tripled over 5 years. For example, if someone needs to look up a formula, they could run into problems with connectivity or the information could be incorrect. Searching the same information on conventional information sources is much reliable than digital information sources. Therefore, people should rely on their own knowledge and books instead of the internet.
To conclude, I believe that remembering important information keeps our memories sharp and helps us develop thinking skills. Despite the fact that the internet is faster than conventional sources, people shouldn’t entirely depend on it.
