In Plato’s Phaedrus, Socrates tells the story of Theuth. He's the Egyptian figure credited with inventing writing. Theuth offers it as a gift, a powerful tool that will aid in memory and make people wiser. But King Thamus isn't persuaded. Writing, he says, will not deepen wisdom at all.

This loss of normalcy is itself a profound harm for everyone on earth who wishes for peace, joy, and goodwill towards all.
