The document discusses the evolution of social interaction, highlighting the impact of technology from early storytelling to modern social networking. It predicts that in the next decade, technology will enhance communication but may also diminish face-to-face interactions, prompting a potential resurgence in valuing real human connections. Innovations like holograms and advanced gadgets will further change how we interact, while there will be movements encouraging offline communication.

within 10 years, taking into consideration
the impact of technology on human
relations?

2. Evolution of Social Interaction
Social interaction and specifically communication between people
has always been one of the main needs of humanity.
Communication over time has evolved and improved, trying to
help people to obtain in a simple and easy way the information
that they require.
Let's see a brief summary of this evolution.

3. Evolution of Social Interaction
Storytelling
Cave Paintings
Town Crier
Marathon Man
Carrier Pigeons
First Postal Services

4. Evolution of Social Interaction
Then started the influence of technology on communications.
Telegraph
Internet
Telephone
Cell phone
Radio
Television

5. Evolution of Social Interaction
And
Social Networks.
As a consequence, there is a closer contact between
people.

6. Social Interaction
At first, social interaction was only person-person or person-group, but the
last decade has had a profound impact on how we interact with people,
now what we see in the middle many times is this new technology. As a
result, we have person-technology-person interactions.
Person
Person
Because of this, people are losing touch of the most basic forms of
social interaction, as talking to each other face to face, feeling each
other’s presence and emotional understanding.

7. Social Interaction in 10 years
In the next ten years, we will see a lot of
improvements
and
innovations
on
technology that
will affect
social
interaction.
Technology will be more accessible to
people,
data
traffic
will
increase
significantly while Internet access will
increase from 30% of the world population
that is now connected, to 50% or more.
We will adjust our social interaction to the
new abundance of ways to interact while
enriching our lives and our relationships.

8. Social Interaction in 10 years
Social Networking
Most probably the major impact of new technologies on human
relations will be influenced by Social Networking.
Social Networking will redesign our social life. There will be
improvements on the existing ones as Facebook or some new
social networks.
We will share information all
day, in real time.
That will keep us in touch with
friends and family in a better
way.

9. Social Interaction in 10 years
Professional Interaction
The professional interaction will be much
better.
Technology
will
help
with
international business and globalization,
because it will help us to communicate in
different languages with instant translation.
Technology will liberate people from the
offices. We will see less physical work
spaces and more remote working. That
will help people to spend more time with
their family and friends.

10. Social Interaction in 10 years
The most important technological invention will be the hologram, as we
have seen in many sci-fi movies.
Also, we will see a lot of new gadgets,
as Google glasses, smarts boards,
smart watches and totally unexpected
things.

11. Social Interaction in 10 years
However, after a period of downfall in “real”
social interaction, people will start to value
and concern more about real and effective
communication.
Because technology brings you closer to
people who are far away, but away from
those who are close.
For this reason, it will exist groups of
people and organizations that will dedicate
themselves to rescue this human contact,
with proposals like, “let's see each other
offline”, zones free of WiFi, free of
electronic devices and full of realcommunications.

12. Conclusion
 Technology will help us in our daily interactions and will
be more important in our lives, but it will exist “real”
interaction with others and personal meetings.
 Some things never change, we will always need to
belong to a social group. For this we rely on existing
services and technologies, as today we can see
Facebook, tomorrow we will see something else.

13. We are moving from the interaction with technology to a
relationship with it. Now we say what we want to do but in
the future the gadgets will know what we want.
Thank you!
