I’d like to record and speak at my own funeral.
There were people that said we would be dumber for not relying on oral tradition and having the information being written. They thought people would become mentally lazy. What we found was writing/reading allowed people more time and mental space for other things, more productive things. It allowed for people to JIT information in a way. We now have that with video, the principle and fear is the same, media is different.
Learning to read is probably not something you should have left to books, and all the things accessing the video or emergency things should be things you should focus on understanding and learning, leave the rest to JIT learning.
