IT technology is also about humanity 信息科技也应关怀人性

Arguably, no technology like IT has had such an impact on our daily life, changing our lifestyle so drastically. Compared with 10 years ago, the easy communication and the easy sharing of information have enabled us to work more efficiently. However, I’d never thought the IT technology was also about humanity until I saw a scene in my recent trip to

Japan.

It was in a Japanese supermarket. A woman had a mobile phone opened and laid on a bookshelf. She was facing the mobile talking, with two hands frantically gesturing. No, she was not talking, she was using sign language --- I realized this when I got closer . There is a man on the mobile small-sized screen, talking, no, gesturing back. "They might be talking about what to buy for tonight dinner", I wondered. But how irrelevant it is, for me it was a touching scene anyway. I’ve been working in the IT field for a while. Seeing the IT is empowering people in their daily life, enabling people’s dream like this, with my own eyes, not in an exhibit, it was a truly touching and satisfactory scene. It truly made me believe IT technology is and should also be about humanity.

 

也许可以说，没有那一项科学技术像信息技术一样对人们的每天的生活有着如此大的影响，非常迅速的改变着我们的生活方式。和10年前相比，方便的交流方式和简单的信息共享是我们更加有效率的工作。但是直到最近在日本的旅行中看到了一幕之前，我从来没有想过信息技术也有着对人性的关怀。

 

那是在一个日本的超级市场。一个妇女对着一个打开的手机手舞足蹈的在讲话。不对，她没有在讲话，她在用哑语。我意识到了这个当我靠的更近了一点。在手机的小屏幕上是一个男子, 同样的在讲话，不，在打手势。”也许他们在讨论为今晚的晚餐该买点什么。”我寻思道。但是这有什么所谓呢？不敢他们在讲什么，对我来讲，这都是一个很感人的一幕。我在信息技术领域已经工作了一段时光了, 也看到过很多令人惊叹的事情。可是亲眼看到，而不是再展览中看到，在人们的日常生活中信息技术赋予人们更多的自由和力量，使人们的梦想变得有可能，是一个非常感人和令人满足的场景。这件事是我真实的相信信息技术有着也应该有着对人性的关怀。
