Smart technology does not make us smart people and even the smartest technology is no substitute for real talent. Having an i-phone, i-pad or i-pod with apps that have all the bells and whistles won’t make you an expert bell ringer or an exceptional whistler... you need that talent first. Wiz kid tech-necks provide smart technology to give everybody fingertip access to incredible artificial intelligence... and apparently your own intelligence is irrelevant because the technology is designed for idiots.
But don’t be fooled by the idiot-proof claims of the app builders because they underestimate the value of god given talent. Just because you have a mega pixel camera does not make you a photographer... having the latest Photoshop will not make you an illustrator and having a desktop mixer won’t make you a chart topping recording artist... you need talent. Smart people make smart technology but smart technology doesn’t always make smart people. These apps are simply tools... like a paint brush... or a filter... or a guitar pic BUT the reality is... the talent drives the technology... not the other way around.
Tech brands claim these apps are brilliant shortcuts... but there are no shortcuts to talent... there are no shortcuts to real vision... and there are no shortcuts to true creativity. So forget about the i-pad the i-pod and the i-phone apps... focus on the ‘I’ talents and apply the ‘I’attitude... I am... I can... and I will...
