Richard Dawkins suggests that the 'astonishing rate' of technological change may outpace human evolution, leading to rising mental health issues and an imbalance in well-being.
Dawkins articulated concerning the pressures resulting from a rapidly changing environment, stating, 'Certainly, the rate at which we are evolving genetically is miniscule compared to... culturally.' This implies that mental illnesses today could stem from a disconnect with a fast-paced, unpredictable world.
Despite concerns about the pace of change, Dawkins noted, 'Actually, I think it's amazing how resilient we are,' highlighting that many individuals adapt well to modern challenges.
On the complex relationship between technology and mental health, Dawkins remarked, 'Many people do worry that the pace of change is such that we are no longer well-adapted to live in it,' acknowledging ongoing debates around this issue.
