This document summarizes the effects of digital distraction on human behavior and brain function. It notes that people now spend 2-3 times as much time online as a decade ago and most check social media daily and switch between devices over 20 times an hour. This constant connectivity is changing how our brain functions, shortening attention spans and affecting memory. The ability to stay focused without distraction has become a rare "superpower." However, the document also sees opportunities to make sense of data and provide tips to use technology in a supportive rather than substitutive way.
