OUR OBSESSION WITH EFFICIENCY IS COSTING US OUR HUMANITY

Summary from the TLDR Marketing newsletter

Society's obsession with efficiency, driven by technology and AI, is erasing the small frictions that make life meaningful. Instant purchases, automated tools, and frictionless services speed everything up but strip away slow, ordinary moments like cooking, daydreaming on a commute, or taking the long route home that give life texture and joy. Embrace inefficiency and savor the scenic route instead of a frictionless, soulless existence.
