Data production & human attention
This infographic investigates the relationship between the amount of data collected daily and the human attention span. In fact, in recent years, human beings have created more and more data. Meanwhile, people are less and less able to follow this flow of information. We have created a world full of data, and the result is that everyone gradually loses the ability to pay attention, creating a large gap between the amount of information available to people and the capacity to focus on them.
2023 Update
Happy to be featured in The Little Book of Data 5 (you can download it here) with a new shiny version this old infographic!
