Yesterday, I had dinner with my friend Xiao A. She handed me her mobile phone with a steak in her hand and said, "Look at the homepage of this APP, all my previous information is gone. It's just that I read some information about beauty these two days, and all the content it automatically pushed is about beauty."

I took the phone and slipped several pages, not to mention it was. I can't help feeling: now the software is almost my own little servant, providing mother-like service, and I will give you whatever you want.

"Don't you feel terrible? It knows everything you want to do. " Small A suddenly reminded me.

Now many apps are pushed by big data, and a lot of information has been filtered out and presented to us. When we visit Taobao, we can see that the pushed and searched products are all the same types as those I bought before. Look at today's headlines, and the pushed products are also the information I have frequently searched by keywords.

Every move in our life is carefully covered by big data, and our world seems to be "filtered", leaving behind what we are "interested in".

neil Pozmann said in Entertainment to Death: "What destroys us is not what we hate, but what we love."

the quickest way to ruin a person is to only look at what interests him.

behind the "intimate" push of big data, the world is shrinking

Let's take today's headlines as an example. I'll keep feeding you these contents if you like. Time-saving and labor-saving. When I don't know what I want, you hand it to my mouth, unpack it, and the temperature is just right. All I need to do is open my mouth and swallow it.

It is said that the content pushed by today's headlines is vulgar, but today's headlines have no editors to decide what content to push to you. It's a series of behaviors that thousands of users in Qian Qian praised, read, and quickly crossed with a little depth again and again, and finally * * * showed such a result.

Today's headline doesn't make a decision. It just finds out what you want to see most in your head and hands it to you.

the information you are not interested in really never appears again, but you have seen a certain content, and when you open it again, you will continue to receive the same type of content.

seemingly innocuous, I don't know that the information on each software homepage is limited. When a large part of it is filled with the information we are interested in, the new things we get will be gradually compressed. We spend a lot of time, but we are repeatedly accepting the same things.

behind the intimate push of big data, the world is shrinking. Big data subtly changes you for a long time through a set of algorithms, which means boiling frogs in warm water, unconsciously narrowing the world we see and indulging in the comfort zone. In the end, we became the tamed dog, and our vision became narrower and narrower.

Just looking at what interests you is just the beginning of marking time.

There is a question in Zhihu: "Why should people keep making progress?"

One of them praised the answer: No limit is the premise of continuous progress. If you just stay in your familiar circle, you will fall into the dilemma of ant thinking.

when we receive the same message over and over again, and avoid those that are not interested, it's easy for us to be confined to our own one-sided knowledge.

Try to jump out of your comfort zone, get into the predicament of "boiling frogs in warm water" and make greater achievements through hard work.

My friend Xiao F is an optimistic person. He has a high recognition of what he does, is lazy, likes to stay in the comfort zone, and is the kind of person who won't embarrass himself. I love playing games, watching movies and Japanese dramas, but it doesn't affect my job. After graduation, my parents arranged to go to state-owned enterprises and institutions to work step by step, but her position has not been improved. But she really chose to jump out and she didn't know what to do, so she could only stand still.

In a small circle, what she sees is that people around her are in this state, working, eating and sleeping, and this cycle is easy to form life as it is. She will think that one side of what she sees is all she thinks.

just looking at what interests you and accepting your inherent knowledge is like setting a ceiling for your growth. In the end, you can only live in the same place day after day.

Your knowledge determines what kind of life you have.

Early this morning, my friend Xiao G called me to complain, saying that she dressed up beautifully yesterday and attended a business party hosted by a client with great interest, only to find that she couldn't get in a word at all and was very embarrassed to stay inside.

I asked her what all the people present talked about and what you talked about. She said that they all talked about how to invest, what kind of investment channels have high returns, which country they visited recently, where the scenery is the most beautiful, or which brand has come out with new products. I don't know so much as a person who works all day and cares for my family.

when I heard her description, I immediately knew what the problem was. In fact, different people's knowledge determines different levels of life.

while others are constantly broadening their horizons, getting to know the new environment and learning new skills, you have been cultivating your own land, so how can you have the same topic of chatting?

If people always stay in one place and don't go out for a walk, they will easily get stuck in their own Xiaotian and become "frogs at the bottom of the well". Beautiful things never take the initiative to seek attention. The wonderful parts of this world, those things that we have no interest in, may hide the real fun.
