Meet Sam, a 21-year-old anthropology student at the University of Waterloo. With a deep fascination for human behavior and social dynamics, Sam often finds themselves questioning the authenticity of interactions in the digital age. Frustrated by the artificiality prevalent on social media, Sam occasionally expresses these thoughts online, prompting them to drop comments like "These people aren't real" when discussions veer into superficial territory. Sam dreams of writing a book that explores the impact of technology on human connections, blending their academic insights with their personal experiences.
