Yes, interesting observation. This "information overload" is the main theme of this and the upcoming decades I think and maybe we do need more technology to be able to organize this information to useful material that will not be so overwhelming. At some point we will have to face this chaos that we have created though, in order to benefit from it. We can build bots and computers that will learn immense quantity of information in basically no time, yet our own computer (our brain) still has super slow updating speeds (learning takes a lot of effort). Yet again, like you said, maybe this is the wrong approach.
