My main concern regarding Smart phones is not what you think long term

My biggest concern is with apps like Siri on Iphones because as software allows it, more and more children are likely going to stop trying to learn to read and write and just use things like Siri to find out whatever they need to know. AS our relationship with smart phones changes to a more verbal interface why should children EVER learn to read and write if they can get AI to do everything for them?

This I think is long term the biggest problem civilization faces in passing on written knowledge (the ability to read and write).
