Technology and Human life.....

[innocentbee]

Its true that technology has taken us to that point where we can even think of impossible but there are many counter-effects that human race is  facing after this advancement in technology ......  wars , global warming , terrorism , time for family etc ........ Do u really think that technology is hurting us more than benefiting us ?

you can always opt out. No one is stoping you from moving to the country side and live in a selfreliant life style.

If he wants but he is into technology now. Advancement of our technology has a good effect on us but that doesnt mean that it no side effect or negative effect of it. All of the new invention and things that they discovered that could lessen our work has a negative effects not onlyy positive always has a negative

Some bits you gain and some you loose.
Thanks to technology human life extended significantly through last century.
From machines, making our work easier to medicine science, giving us a chance against
cruel mother nature. We have lost many things that made us, muscles, fur, sharp nails, eon by eon we becoming less and less of an animal. Instincts are almost completely forgotten.
And yet, technology still makes us more resilient against this world dangers.
I think that we are in the moment of equilibrium with nature and technology, this will slowly change, a new age is on approach, age of cyborgs and AI.

it is reasonable . today many human work that can be done technologically. its positive impact is our job will be easier.
its negative impact is that the human race as shown do not work hard.

[mindrust]

Technology makes clever people more clever and stupids more stupid. For example, you can use post it apps to remember things and in time you will write down everything to remember them. On the other hand, the person who developed that post-it app is making fat bucks out of your weak mind !

Yes for me.  I mean technology is like control my self, especially gadget and internet.
I can't stay away from gadget, i think like 10 hours a day, I always with my gadget. And I like crazy if I lost my gadget.
But I still can't use gadget for  good good profit.

[mikehersh2]

It is without a doubt benefiting us. But to a certain extent, and maybe in the near future, it will start hurting us. Such as human conversation becoming completely obsolete due to the overuse of social media and cell phones.

unfortunately people use the technology with intention to hurt the other. many countries are developing heavier weapons to destroy your enemy, many countries develop the most sophisticated equipment to spy on the enemy,  more you develop the technology, the less freedom we have, reached an era where people have no freedom to express their thoughts on social media, in newspapers, on tV or on the street.

You can see that in many city has cameras for surveillance, are it very efficient to fight crime, but take people's freedom.

[zenitzz]

It's good that technology is advancing, but I think it's being used for the wrong reasons, especially if the teenager is still attending school.

[groll]

I do not think that technology advancement is hurting us.  Technology really helped us a lot.  From medicine to our home everything was due to technology.  It helps our lives so easy.  The problem is that we rely in it too much that it makes us all lazy.  We abuse the use of it that resulted to some bad effects like global warming and family relationships.  We should know how to bakance things.

The technology has nothing to do with the wars going on and all the other damage that our world is receiving. How did you post this thread? Using your smartphone, a desktop computer, or a laptop, right? Did your laptop slapped you after you hit the post button? It didn't. Same goes to the wars going on, global warming, terrorism, and our bad relationship to other human beings.

We are the ones who are hurting other people. We're just using the technology to hurt other people. For example, in a war, we can now use a nuclear bomb to hurt other people. We are the ones who are operating it, and we are the ones who had the intention to hurt other people. Not the technology itself.

Once the technology has taken all over the entire world, our methods of hurting each other will just be more efficient than it was. But the case would still be the same, it's the humans who hurt other humans.

[ObscureBean]

How can technology possibly hurt anyone? People choose to use technology of their own free will, it's up to each and everyone to find their balance. You certainly can't blame lack of family time on technology. As for terrorism, well that's just an included bonus in the package, when you engineer an otherwise perfect balance to favor you, you gotta be smart enough to realize that the equation will still be balancing itself out beyond the illusory(?) comfort you've gained. One way or another.

[Vinz24]

Techonology makes the human life style easy. Like in communication, you can communicate to everybody around the world. Technology will have a bad effect if its use it in wrong doing, like in war.

[countryfree]

Old question. Atomic power can produce cheap energy for millions but it can also kill millions. Besides high technology, a fork is very useful to eat but it can also hurt you real bad if someone pokes one in your eyes. Ultimately, technology is neutral, everything depends on the men using it.

[dx5]

I think that social media, cell phones and texts, and excess amount of other media have made teenagers lives pretty vapid.

What I mean, take away their phone, or even your phone for 24 hours, and monitor them. Every few seconds they're going to get the itch to check their updates on a bunch of stuff, see if anyone has written anything on Facebook, etc. But the phone is not there. They will get stressed out.

Then they're binge watching things on their phone, walking around the house watching one episode after another. Have to get up and pee, walks with the phone, or laptop in front of them. Up to season 3 episode 7. Ask them to tell you what happened 3 episodes ago, they won't remember because there was never any free time for the brain to process it and file it. Making it all a waste of time.

Technology is great, but before the internet, having limited time for things, like a tv show you like being set at a certain time. Those things were actually better.

[d4rkv01d]

Technology have given a lot to the human race...but shut down electricity and we are dead ( so in some way it makes us stronger but from the other side makes us weak

Well it depends on the acceptation or vision of individuals also how we think about this things as we embrace the advance technology we need to accept the fact that in some reasons it benefits us ,advance technology helps us a lot .it made things work easier and faster. 
Advance technology have advantage and disadvantage also it depends on how we use it and how it reflects on our daily lives .abusing so much use of technologies is not good in our health and mind like that wars,global warming, time for family we can manage this things as long as we are openminded about the things happening to us .

You are free to move away from civilization and live as a hunter and gatherer. But imho even then you would need technology to survive (e.g. the knowlegde to make weapons).

[Sponsoredby15]

I am for human life but not pro human life because I hate criminals they are not humans so it is better to punish them literary. But human life vs technology it is better to have man power in industry because it is the need of all people in the world JOB makes as alive. So if robut exist an average person will not get job.

[botija]

Technology is great, but today I saw a vinyl record cover, which were before my time, and I thought, it must have felt awesome going to the store and buying one of those and enjoying it, vs having an unlimited supply of music and jumping from song to song.

Its true that technology has taken us to that point where we can even think of impossible but there are many counter-effects that human race is  facing after this advancement in technology ......  wars , global warming , terrorism , time for family etc ........

the disadvantage is that it takes employment of people, look here:



The machine is much better than people, It makes complex jobs in a few hours and at the same time takes employment of people.

The capitalistic model wants to maximize profits and the ideal situation for a company is to get all the profits without any workers at all. As the technological capabilities increase, those who cannot get skills that a machine cannot do will lose their job. Ultimately, this is a self-fulfilling prophecy. It's only a matter of time before the technology is there to replace your job. If your job is complicated, you may have several decades until your retirement. There are some exceptions to this rule, like politicians, hookers, dentists, but I think 99% of the people do not fall within that range. On the long term capitalism cannot sustain itself because there are no longer people with money to buy the goods and services.

Technology may have the potential to save humanity on the long term, the sun has a limited lifespan and we need to move or find a way to survive if we as a species want to survive.
The damage done by technology may prevent a livable environment. The only certainty in life is that you are doomed, so have some fun along the way

Hitler did it wrong. There was no benefit in having concentration camps. The above picture shows how the new fascism is making strides in practicing doing it the right way.

I can confirm, that's something that used to be absolutely awesome    it doesn't even compare to today's deluge of everything, accessible through a few clicks from your house. I've never actually bought any vinyl records, I'm talking about buying Mega Drive games in the early nineties as a kid. I would go to the store with my parents and I would be standing there for ages deciding on the game to pick for my birthday. These days, I still enjoy gaming a lot and I can get any game I want almost instantly but the thrill and fun of getting the game is completely gone

Technology is a gift from God that helps people live.

Thousands of years ago, people were a lot stronger. Look at the pyramids of Egypt... the gigantic blocks of stone that those people had to move without modern technology. Could we do it without modern technology today? People simply aren't as strong now as they were back then.

God has given us technology to help us with out weaknesses. Of course, some people use it for bad things - like war. But it helps many others in their weakness.

Traveling 100 miles before there were cars could tae a day, easily. Now it takes little more than an hour, with a car.

People were not a lot stronger, they simply had more slaves to work for them.  If you have 10.000 or 100.000 slaves, I am certain you can make a big building without the use off modern technology.

God has given us technology to help us with out weaknesses. Of course, some people use it for bad things - like war. But it helps many others in their weakness.

This doesn't make sense. If you are the most powerful God, why to create individual with weakness only to give tools to improve their situation? Humans created the technology, not god. Did god make the Apple iPhone and Automobile too? In my opinion God only created the humans.

If the number of slaves or employees were of importance, then science would have figured out how they did it long ago. Science still doesn't know how they did it.

Of course it doesn't make sense to someone who doesn't understand that God gave man freedom, and mankind used his freedom to become weak. So, it wasn't God's doing.

Like man's weakness, God took a look at mans freedom to ask for things, and implanted cause and effect in the universe that would make man invent Apple iPhones and automobiles.

So, you see? Man did it to themselves through the little bit of freedom that they have... way deep down inside themselves... the freedom to ask God, even they don't understand that this is what they are doing. But because man is not strong enough, God did it by giving mankind what they asked for. It works this way all the time.

The numbers are important because of scale. Making a house with 10 people is easier than alone. A pyramid would require many more people.

If you decode the scriptures you can read they had different types of slaves with a variety of social status. The writing is enough proof for me. If you take a look at the corpse of a mummy, you will see that there is nothing particularly unusual about it. They look almost identical to modern humans except a lot smaller.

So, you see? Man did it to themselves through the little bit of freedom that they have... way deep down inside themselves... the freedom to ask God, even they don't understand that this is what they are doing. But because man is not strong enough, God did it by giving mankind what they asked for. It works this way all the time.

I find your argument very confusing. I don't think God bothers with minuscule details of the universe such as an individual human life. If you have an aquarium of 20x20x20 meters, would you focus only on the life of one fish?

haha same problem here altho, I was lucky that my parents were buying vinyl before so I have a few really,really good heavy metal albums. But yes, I remember buying catridges a long ass time ago and later on, ps1 games, and can you imagine the happines when my father came home with 150 ps1 games in a box. Good times, good times... Now I don't even play games on pc that much...

[crairezx20]

Yeah there is disadvantages and advantages but technology gives advantages because all our work make it easy. like cellphone before we only have a pager like this
Now we have now cellphone that we can talk or call in far places.

[Xester]

It is on the middle.  It benefits us like giving us more time and preserving our energy with technology that makes our life more easy and comfortable.  It gives us almost all comfortable thing we could imagine.  Though with all these advancements, we tend to be abusive and as a result we have sudden change in environment.  We polluted the air, bodies of water, and the land.  Due to advancement we also makes it easy for us to kill people.  Because of high technology, people have invented nuclear weapon, guns, bombs and the like.  It is okay to be modern but what we over use it, we abuse it.

you are totally right.. modern people are too weak to handle some physically demanding works . on the other hand, modern people are more clever than their ancestors. For that reasons , they have been creating technological stuffs which make their life easier.. that is the point which make technology irreplaceable.

All depends on us this technology

Indeed if we make bad it will be bad

But if we think well then technology becomes good.

Advances in robotics will produce an even greater effect on work than the industrial revolution. On the other hand life expectancy is greater, we live longer and we are more people on the planet. With more population and less work, the work that remains will be more precarious, with lower wages and worse conditions. Because of this in countries like Finland have been approved the Universal Basic Income and others such as Netherlands and Switzerland are studying.

Apart from this, technological advances make life easier for us even though Hollywood is obsessed with making us hate technology or scientific progress.

It is very strange that you are talking about the fact that Hollywood is very much agitating against high technologies and yet they themselves are using them. Perhaps some of this has an impact on humanity in only one minimal way.

[chixka000]

War was always been there since then before technology takes place so its not a proper discussion. Time of your family may be affected yes that is quite acceptable, yet in the end it is still on you on how are you going to use technology i have seen a family who does things together

Edit: global warming was caused by dirty sorroundings causing polution is actually done by humans not by technology

As we divulged ourselves in development we became focus on the issues on economy and we have treated our natural resources as a tool to increase profit without considering the after effects of our actions. Humanity have made their lives very comfortable but with a price. I do think that technology is now hurting us more than benefiting us. But we can still save our planet by the use of technology all we need is discipline.

I think technology is obviously very beneficial for us. Communication technology, Transport technology and others. We are made easier to communicate with anyone and anywhere. We can go anywhere faster by sea or air lines. We can also share information throughout the world, Technology is very helpful to human life. But technology can also damage human life if we are wrong to use it. I think it all depends on how we use technology.

You've stated some "counter effects"that we, human race are facing after this advancement technology like wars or global warmi g, and then you said in the end that do we really think that the technology is hurting us than benefiting us, which make sense, but what might happen is also our fault, we also want to make our lives and work easy and efficient, that is why we make things that do something we usually do human so we will not bother do it anymore. Technology is really far.

[RajaJudi]

Human life nowaday is placed by technology typical is smartphone. I'm afraid it will make people far from each other, shy to communicate, always hold a phone in hand and even when we eat. It's terrible   

[Supreemo]

.Yeah you are absolutely right OP, as we can see people nowadays are too dependent on technology and have become lazy to do work, machines don't think like we do, we keep on destroying or killing the nature in order to build our dreamland but in the end when we already feel uncontented what would be next? Planet made by plastic or made steel?

[sindikat]

Human life nowaday is placed by technology typical is smartphone. I'm afraid it will make people far from each other, shy to communicate, always hold a phone in hand and even when we eat. It's terrible   

You can meet with one or two friends, and with a smartphone you can in one day to talk with all friends. Is it bad?

[ecnalubma]

We cant escape technology for example in some offices almost all companies use computers now because its fast, efficient and making people more productive. And some people can't live without it including me spending hours on mobile device and its a part of my daily life, but anobody has a choice to be unplugged.

[Love!]

Do u really think that technology is hurting us more than benefiting us ?

No. I still believe there are more good people than bad in the world. I also believe that the end result of the use of a technology corresponds with the type of person using it.

One plus one equals two.

[rahmat92]

Technology was deliberately created to facilitate human work to the desired results. With the technology, every work that can not be done by humans can be done in the presence of technology.

[W3Coins]

As far as I can see Technology has benefited humans over the course of history.

No doubt technology can be used for harmful things but even a stone can be used to hurt someone or to build a house.

It's humans that use technology that make the outcome of its use good or bad.

Another impact Technology has had in some cases is pollution. It should be used more to reduce it in my opinion.

[Ginosaur15]

Technologies has a big effect in human life whether good and bad.  Well good cause it help us makes our job easier and faster through machines, gadgets, etc. The bad effect is i makes people lazy.

[BurstIQ]

Technology has and will continue to influence human life.
The speed at which Technology has advanced during the past century or so is incredible.
And that speed keeps increasing more and more.

I can only imagine in 20 years from now where we will be at.

                        Yes it is the reality and we can't deny the fact that as the times passes by the improvements of technology also increases and its way more easier than before, but the big problem is that people are losing credibility even if we say that humans are the ones making technology, it also made us people more reliable and tech-dependent at the same time.

Even though technology has brought us to almost on the brink of extinction with Nuclear War and biological warfare but I think it has brought a lot of development and advantages to the world. When it comes to health and agriculture, there is a lot of benefits for us.

[mariahh]

No I don't think that technology itself is hurting us more than benefiting us.There is a huge evolution to technology and thanks the science this have simplified our lives.Can you imagine your lives without electricity,microchips,or internet?
We can decide how to handle the technology for our advantage,instead of being estranged among our selves because of social networks and other bad results of technology.

you can always opt out. No one is stoping you from moving to the country side and live in a selfreliant life style.

If he wants but he is into technology now. Advancement of our technology has a good effect on us but that doesnt mean that it no side effect or negative effect of it. All of the new invention and things that they discovered that could lessen our work has a negative effects not onlyy positive always has a negative

Technology created our life to become easily at all it must spend a lessen time to do another. All things have advantage and dis advantage. Do you think if technology has gone our time must be lessen? Technology affect in our community also why? It can easily do what ordinary person do. So a person who can do a job that it can easily do by technology then he/she has not belong to that work so it is example to the disadvantage.

[masterwakokok7]

Its true that technology has taken us to that point where we can even think of impossible but there are many counter-effects that human race is  facing after this advancement in technology ......  wars , global warming , terrorism , time for family etc ........ Do u really think that technology is hurting us more than benefiting us ?

Somehow technology do hurt and benefits us. For example Global Warming, advance technologies do damage the Earth. Main reason is Pollution brought by the technology. But, In return it benefits in terms of transportation, accuracy of work, consumable energy, nuclear power and etc. In relates to family issues concerning new tech. Yes, smartphones do helps family stay connected but the sad part is that some spend hours and hours over their smartphones than having a nice conversation face to face, or to bond with your parents and siblings and etc. The point is technology is already out there and we can't stop it. It's a matter how would we use and manage it. Their is no such thing is perfect in this world and let's accept it.

I do not think so, the rapid development of technology, is our symbol of modern human civilization, as long as we make good use of it, rather than use it to fight, so for us, it is useful.

[matuson]

Technologies do have great importance in the life of modern man. Only to say benefit or harm impossible. Modern people are already so used to technology that even a simple accident with the power supply seems to be universal catastrophe.

[skymberloh]

I think technology is obviously very beneficial for us. Communication technology, Transport technology and others. We are made easier to communicate with anyone and anywhere. We can go anywhere faster by sea or air lines. We can also share information throughout the world, Technology is very helpful to human life. But technology can also damage human life if we are wrong to use it. I think it all depends on how we use technology.

I believe that technology gives a lot of benefit for us. It makes things  fast and easy.Many people now do have cars to travel,cellphones to communicate around  the world. In the world of farming through technology farmers easily harvest crops.i think technology gives alot of good benefits than bad effects.

[kuishen]

I think this is the case, technological progress, especially chemical pollution to the environment has been destroyed, and now the situation has been very bad.

[slaz26]

I think this is the case, technological progress, especially chemical pollution to the environment has been destroyed, and now the situation has been very bad.

In order for progress not to destroy nature, it is necessary to create special nature-conserving industries. But to my great regret, the world's leading corporations are more concerned with making a profit than saving nature

In order for progress not to destroy nature, it is necessary to create special nature-conserving industries. But to my great regret, the world's leading corporations are more concerned with making a profit than saving nature

Special nature-conserving industries, and what would that be?

Technology in last 100 years is killing our nature and world. Who eat healthy food? Who bread fresh air? And hunger for power of some group of people will never end, and they don`t even see what are they doing.
Big changes are needed in order to stop the pollution and some of the things that are destroyed will never be renewed. Technology made life much easier then before, that is true, but with what cost is the big question.

[citizenh-ssd]

To date, high technology is so much later to bring for the lives of people, that it seems to me that you already can not imagine my life much. The fact is that people now have not only light work but also opportunities for entertainment or even everything else that facilitates their life in everyday life.

[maxindex]

Life is the unity and struggle of opposites. This saying is confirmed every day. All the achievements of science and technology obey him. After all, it is impossible to give an unambiguous assessment. For example, what is a car - a vehicle, without which a person no longer thinks of living, or evil, which takes thousands of human lives daily. And the computer? An irreplaceable helper or omnivorous monster?

Disputes about how harmful the achievements of technology, continue endlessly. But it is already impossible to stop progress. And yet we must agree that we can no longer do without a mobile phone, a computer or other achievements of technical progress.

[hugobord]

Modern means of communication are dual-use technologies. On the one hand, they can promote a very rapid establishment of social contacts and the emergence of new loyal friends. On the other hand, if you confuse a certain kind of circumstances, the information you left in social networks can play a cruel joke with you. In this regard, compliance with the principle of due diligence will not be superfluous.

[petreajs]

There are all these modern technological solutions and its downside. Firstly, getting acquainted on the Internet, you are not insured, that you will not run into a person who is inadequate and / or not at all suitable for you. After all, questionnaires and e-mails will endure everything. And people are actively using it, inventing beautiful legends and exposing to the public not their photos. Secondly, you will agree that by spreading information in social networks, you can no longer claim its confidentiality. Many people quite frivolously approach this issue and believe that they do not upload anything superfluous to the Web. However, it is not.

[machinek20]

It depends on how you see it, technology got the good side and the bad side, the good side is it has helped us to make our life easier, you can do transaction from home, you can find a lot of information from internet and so on, the bad side is the children now is prefer to play smartphone rather than play with the friend and technology like laptop and smartphone has caused some health issue, but for me technology bring more positive than the negative

[Xavofat]

Technology is a mixed bag, and we all know that.

As long as people are free to do what they want on the technology, like use Bitcoin for example, overall it'll be a somewhat positive influence.

[radenbachtyar]

I think technology can benefit us but it can also be painful for us. It depends on each of us want in which technology is it? Whether the technology will be used to improve the things or want to menjulumuskan us of crimes that can be painful

[Lancusters]

Any technology can bring both benefits and death and destruction. Let me remind you that nuclear weapons are also technologies. It seems to me that technology made life easier for man, but faster than destroying the planet lead to the fact that the person loses the ability to survive in extreme conditions.

[PanGiMoon]

Any technology can bring both benefits and death and destruction. Let me remind you that nuclear weapons are also technologies. It seems to me that technology made life easier for man, but faster than destroying the planet lead to the fact that the person loses the ability to survive in extreme conditions.

Today, thanks to high technologies, we can not only save the planet, but also very actively destroy. It's really so I think there's nothing to argue about. In ancient times, no one harmed the earth with pickaxes or axes, but today there are very different technologies that enable us to do worse and worse which will lead to a very sore end.

High and advanced technologies are very much helping a person, And at the same time, very much a person suffers from these technologies. Even if they believe that you Take it away is also one of the high-tech products, then just Count How many people die in car accidents every day. Here is the result of cooperation between man and high technologies.

[myparentsdisownedme]

Kind of a super broad question but yeah it's been helping us for sure

[CataloniaFM]

Many talk about the dangers of technology, but no one wants to completely abandon it. What is the reason? Modern technology is very good, because a person has more free time that can be spent with advantage.

[Palmerson]

All technologies facilitate the life of modern man, but we become so dependent on them that now if for any reason we will not be able to use them man cannot live. If in the Western countries will disappear tomorrow all refrigerators it will be a disaster, and once you lose everything else...

[pisston]

All technologies facilitate the life of modern man, but we become so dependent on them that now if for any reason we will not be able to use them man cannot live. If in the Western countries will disappear tomorrow all refrigerators it will be a disaster, and once you lose everything else...

The fact is that we can talk about how technology has relation to humanity, but we are only talking about positive facts the impact of high technology on a person. Mankind in its own way makes a lot of commitments regarding the preservation of our planet. But the fact that so many technologies destroy not only the life of a person but also destroy the very nature. We need to talk about this and do something.

[darkangel11]

All technologies facilitate the life of modern man, but we become so dependent on them that now if for any reason we will not be able to use them man cannot live. If in the Western countries will disappear tomorrow all refrigerators it will be a disaster, and once you lose everything else...

I'm pretty independent of modern technology, but it's a great wake up call to watch those people on youtube that try to live completely off grid. They buy a piece of land and build everything from scratch, take water from a well, have hot tubs heated with firewood and hunt rabbits. I've watched a guy catch, cook and eat a rat today

[ananas99]

One day it was said that it was her progress in the evening. To date, technology has gone so far that it will be very easy for a person to cope with everyday life. On the one hand, humanity has become lazy, but on the other hand it has become more intelligent in terms of high

Well I think technology hurts us more that it benefits us because it's true that technology helps us a lot, but on the other hand it makes us crave to discover things that can be destructive and harmful.

you can always opt out. No one is stoping you from moving to the country side and live in a selfreliant life style.

that was a little bit harsh. We have no choice than to accept it anyways, either it is causing negativity or not. It has both its good parts as well as the bad one and so is any other thing in life including humans! It is just a way of evolution which is inevitable.

[zedkiel08]

technology is part of human life , even long ago technology is being used by humans , we humans benifits with technology in everyday living , maybe in future it will hurt us , still humans and technology will be the cause of hurting oneself in far future.

[haggaik]

Technology has taken us to where we are now, which we can not go back but there are other significant effect too. But both Technology and Human life are all importunity. We cannot do without each other.

[hugoworld]

Nobody can deny negative effects of technology but people are manipulating technological advantages. They use technology for horrible purposes more than beneficial aims. Purpose is the worst one not technology.

[siti25]

Technology helps us in doing everyday things, but sometimes technology makes us a lazy person. For example, when we go to a place, when we get used to boarding a car or motorcycle, then one day we do not have a car or a motorcycle. Sometimes we feel lazy to go by walking, because we are too used to ride the vehicle. It's just one good impact and bad impact.

[Palmerson]

Nobody can deny negative effects of technology but people are manipulating technological advantages. They use technology for horrible purposes more than beneficial aims. Purpose is the worst one not technology.

I don't know of the negative effects of technology. There are negative consequences from the fact that people in the pursuit of profit does not care about the environment, but agree that's another problem. If you wish, you can always build a clean production.

[iamlds08]

Technology give us positive and negative effect on human life. The positive side of technology are; first, it help us to be knowlegeable enough in our surroundings. It helps us to cure different kinds of sicknes. It improves our way of education and our environmenr. It helps the government. It can give us an easy way of living. The negative effects of technology are.. first, it makes us to be stupid. It makes us to be lazy because we always depend on technology. It make us to believe in what we saw on internet by using simply out phones and gadgets that are nit really true and helpful in the real life. It affects the way of security in our selves and to others. It also invades propery.
I think we must use technology in a good way so it may help us to do good as well.

[Aleister Crowley]

Indeed it is very ironic,. when they / we realize that technology kills us but we are very dependent on technology da feels very difficult to release technology from us,,.
Maybe we just wait until the time the world is destroyed in the cause of the technology we make ourselves..

[Chumlee]

Technology and Human life should go hand in hand. Without Human life technology is not possible. It is we human beings who have created powerful technologies for our benefits and convenience.

[neon_colors01]

Technology is applying science.
If you have the knowledge even though you are at the era of cavemen
and you used it on your own advantage to make your life easier.

Then that's technology.
Even a club for hunting is technology..
Living with it is inevitable.

Just accept it.
People are lazy creatures who always look for more convenience.
We can't deny that.

It's fun though.
Less stress.

[EdfuJihad]

All things have its negative and postive effects in all aspects in life,  as well in Technology.  Because of the application of science, our lives got easier because of the advancements. Most of the time,  we are focused on the positive effects of technology now knowing the growth and increased of negative effects of it as the question stated e.g like wars,  global warming etc.  I believe that,  also through technology we can slowly fixed the negative effects that was brought by the technology, itself.

[auditankara]

Well, i think people use technology more for bad things than for good ones, it's not tech problem, it's ours.

[kabirhusen]

Technology makes our life easier.Now we communicate one place to another place by using technology.Now we can spend our boring time playing online game and watching you tube .Man can travel one country to another country by the blessing of technology. 

[Idrisu]

Technology has it disadvantage and advantage, we can not really say it hurts us more than the benefits. Advanced in technology is a great additional intelligence to humanity! Before the advert of technology evil has been existing in full mode. I have read from history how war, crime and calamity befell humanity.

Yes ,not only the technology but also the media who are incharge of mindsetting us and somethimes in a wrong belief to believe in. As the invention of some high technology harm us .like you said there are wars with improvise gadgets or new tech machines.

[galestorm]

Technology has rapidly evolved over the years. It is a thing that us humans cant possibly live without it. It plays a vital role in our society and the lifestyle of every person out there, but there are advantages and disadvantages which regards to this matter..

Advantages
1. It can lessen the time in doing a certain task
2. It makes it easier to do things like washing clothes and researching about a certain topic.. etc.
3. It helps us to virtually connect with other people
4. Technology provides a wide variety of jobs, may it be on the internet or not.
5. It keeps us updated with what is happening around us

Disadvantages
1. Less interaction with the people around you
3. Human jobs will be replaced by machines
4. It will leave you exposed to high levels of radiation
5. People will become more dependant on it

[Graed]

Technology is great, but like other things in our lives we gotta balance it out.

[MeridianMDN]

Its true that technology has taken us to that point where we can even think of impossible but there are many counter-effects that human race is  facing after this advancement in technology ......  wars , global warming , terrorism , time for family etc ........ Do u really think that technology is hurting us more than benefiting us ?

Good technology certainly brings forward more benefits than anything else.

What would life be like today if the car had never been invented? ... Or the aeroplane... Where would we be today if steps were not taken to create the personal computer?  ... Would life be the same if the telephone never existed?

The human race has benefited greatly from it's ability to create, it's perhaps the one thing that separates us from all the other life forms of the world.

I will always be an advocate of creativity and, the technology that we currently have access to is simply a result of creativity.

Maybe we could have done without creations such as fast food, and fidget spinners...  But, it is undeniable that inventions such as the internet have perhaps propelled us into an entirely different world in which much more is possible

[Amevalentine]

Technology has been teaching us about how to connect people around the world in easy.
Human life can be better when the technology is used as it should be.
Are we able to receive and manage well the amount of technology in the present?

technology today is more advance and we humans benifits with it , people today is in more experiments , they have been using technology to make the imposible posible.. technology today is being used in war , mostly in terrorism ,, someday technology will destroy us than benifits us ,,

[freeyourmind]

I would think that technological advancement gives humans more tools to use, especially with the distribution of information. But like any tool, the user can use it in a way to help himself or society, or to harm himself or society.

Take drones for example. I think it's very cool technology. But in the hands of a sociopath, and carrying bombs on it, it becomes destructive even though the technology itself isn't bad at all.

[malikusama]

As technology became a need of the current world but there are also many negative impact of it on our society as you have mentioned i.e wars, don't have time for family, increase in terrorism etc. So it is difficult to answer that if technology is hurting more than benefiting but generally i think it has benefited more than hurting us.

[Sadlife]

Technology where created to be benefit us humans but all good things has a price like for example using electricity it gives light it helps power our appliances to be able to use our gadgets like smartphone and to not freeze in the night by the use a technology called heater but at the same time we are digging out our natural resources like this batteries thay we used to power up our gadgets and to have electricity. The point is that technology isn't the fault but rather humans because we are the one's invented yet it look a lot more that technology is using us more than we do.

[RedX]

As technology became a need of the current world but there are also many negative impact of it on our society as you have mentioned i.e wars, don't have time for family, increase in terrorism etc. So it is difficult to answer that if technology is hurting more than benefiting but generally i think it has benefited more than hurting us.

I think the reason why its hurting people more because they use it inappropriately. Technology is made to help us but if you abuse it then you should know the consequence. If only humans have self-control and disciplined then technology will never be discussed as major problem in our society.

[Lenzie]

I guess that point of view depends on the users perspective. Too much of anything is detrimental. If technology will be use in advancement and innovations that would help the race then it really would contribute and advance us. The downside are the greedy people who uses technology for their own interest.

[LevshaK1]

Many talk about the dangers of technology, but no one wants to abandon it and live as a primitive man. Technology in good hands is very useful and significantly improves the quality of human life.

[Ziomuro27]

Yes, technology can harm us more when we don't limit ourselves, think before you click social media like facebook twitter and instagram is one of the most addicting website that can persuade us in just a simple post of pictures,  qoutes and everything that we can see on internet.I am just stating an example in how will technologies may affect us.

[kiraflo24]

The  impacts of Tech its in  good and bad way at the same time. The main and most important advantage of it, its the ability to make our life easier  and it helped us to learn more about our world. Its main disadvantage is the fact that we have put too much trust  into it, that can backfire sometimes and the fact we are replacing our natural gifts with human-made things.The point is:  "let  it make your life better but don’t let it replace your life".

[freeyourmind]

The problem is that technology and especially social media has a profit motive. So something like Facebook or Instagram wants the user to use the app or visit the site as much as possible. So it's created with an addictive nature to suck the time out of those that will allow it, and there are millions of social media addicts.

Technology is not the wrong there ofcourse they will use that to pronote their activities or sonething for them to earn we cant do about it just accept it is part of that social media sites.

[joebrook]

Technology has without doubt improved human lives for the better, Hard chores has now become very simplified due to tools and technological advancements, even the health sector has been well boosted with technology to save human lives.

[28days_ever]

Technology has greatly improved human life, if properly used. Nobody hinders to give up all this and live somewhere in the forest, but I have not seen a single person who would have gone to such a thing.

[KingCanuck5]

Technology helps us in doing everyday things.

[iamsolarpowered]

We cannot do without each other. it take us further.

[memephistopheles]

Technology is applying science.

[2pal34u]

tech is an effective way to improve the human life.

[MySharktank5]

Yes, a part of it is true. Like global warming, it's acelerated because we are able to produce more, so there's more waste and trash that affects earth.

[BigBall]

Techonogy is making us more good than bad but many times it do bad things for us so it can also destroy us in future but I hope that it will never happent but who knows what will happent.

[prettycompanionz]

We cant escape technology for example in some offices almost all companies use computers now because its fast, efficient and making people more productive. And some people can't live without it including me spending hours on mobile device and its a part of my daily life, but anobody has a choice to be unplugged.

We can't escape but we're free to use them just the necessary time. We still have activities that don't depend of them.

[Ziomuro27]

For me the problem is on us because we never limit ourselves in using technologies and we are keeping to do the bad things that can affects us severly. The example of technologies on us is being addicted on it instead of using it in a good way we use it for our happiness, happiness that can destroy everyone of us and live into a miserable society .

[messibesiy]

technology is obviously very beneficial for us

[Baconoid_]

we people nowadays are too dependent on technology, so its not very good.

[Lamzn6]

The  impacts of Tech its in  good and bad way at the same time.

[justyeah]

Technology is a mixed bag... it works and it doesnt.

[madman_sage]

smartphones are new techlonogy and its helpfull.

[bettie66]

with a smartphone you can in one day to talk with all friends... i love being in contact with them.

[Saidmod]

Its true that technology has taken us to that point where we can even think of impossible but there are many counter-effects that human race is  facing after this advancement in technology ......  wars , global warming , terrorism , time for family etc ........ Do u really think that technology is hurting us more than benefiting us ?

Technology is depending on the usage and i can see some.of technology are created to hurt people or a particular country .Technoogy is good if it is created to help people but those technology like HAARP and new medicines that can make people change or being addicted thats not good.. Technology itself is good people who wants bad makes it wrong.

[jojowar]

We have to use our technology in a best way. We should not sacrifice our environment for the development of something.

[friscomuted]

Technology provide us the feeling of power, so many humans use it to attack or even kill others. It has a dark side, that won't be discussed.

[ranz_18]

Technology is evolving and scientists are frequently developing new concepts and theories, improving our life style and making the world ultimately a better place to live in.

[ttbd]

Well, it impacts us in good ways and in bad ways; the same way globalization effects us in both good and bad ways. I used to say that we should just stop advancing technology since it seems to doom humanity and some ethics in a way. But now I believe certain advancements need to be made to help the problems created from other advancements, if you get what I mean. In other words, we may have created a cycle of cause and effect in which we need technology to fix problems technology has created. Thus an endless cycle until we come to a point where we’re in complete control of it and it's problems, or when technology is in complete control of us and our problems.

[Gerci]

Today there is nothing that can be far from the name of technology, because technology plays an important role in human life, without human technology can not move, let alone in the future any technology will be in need in human life

Do u really think that technology is hurting us more than benefiting us ?

Yes it has a reflection to the people that cause a problems in the world. Every advance technology have a effect to the people and its not about for always giving good effect to the people. There also a bad things that happens. If there is an advance technology that use of many factory and the smoke is produce in all surroundings. What is going to happen to the people and to the surroundings. The air is not going to fresh and people maybe can sick because of that.

[SamboNZ]

technology help us to make things faster and easier, but it also make some of us dependent in it that it makes us lazy.

Do u really think that technology is hurting us more than benefiting us ?

Yes. Technology really harms us in the long run. Exposure to technologic gadgets can potentially contrib to cancer and other mutations. Exposure to radiation can bring about brain cancer. Technology in food preservation like nitrates can lead to colon cancer. Technology in livestock raising can produce cancer because of growth hormones. It doesn't look like it but it does us harm.

[Eraldo Coil]

I do not think that technology is making human lives worse. It is just because humans abuse the use of technology and that is why we ended up hurt. We should know how to properly use the products of technology or else we can destroy our world.

[JollySkipper]

Its true that technology has taken us to that point where we can even think of impossible but there are many counter-effects that human race is  facing after this advancement in technology ......  wars , global warming , terrorism , time for family etc ........

Not in any way! Technology is everything and will save us!
With technology we can stop wars for ever, global warming and terrorism.
AI + Robotics is this ultimate solution for everything, and we are closer than ever!!

Technology nowadays is  going popular and popular and all people using technology now is abusing it. Yes technology now is giving sickness now.

Technology has being a part of our life, even though it came with some hazard but it has done us more good than evil.

Its true that technology has taken us to that point where we can even think of impossible but there are many counter-effects that human race is  facing after this advancement in technology ......  wars , global warming , terrorism , time for family etc ........ Do u really think that technology is hurting us more than benefiting us ?

Technology has made our life better than ever, and is going to make our life even better. All people who think technology will destroy are people who do not invest time to learn what technology offered us and what will offer us soon.

Technology benefits us as well as harms us at the same time. For example in communication, technology is made for us to be closer to the people around us, may it be family, friends or not. It is indeed doing in job and is helping people who are miles away from each other, but at the same time gives their relationship a gap. Because they know technology exists, some people doesn't give efforts in making way for them to meet up closer and face to face. Technology assures them that they are still closer even miles apart, but little they did know it's slowly tearing them apart until they already grow tired of each other. The more connected you are in technology and the more you use it, the farther apart it may pull you away from the people surrounding you.

[gigatux]

Technology and Human life. Technology has been a big part in our daily lives, since we've latched onto technology I think that human life has become better in some aspects, but I've found out that through the years technology has improved and took so many processes to gain its potential right now, but sadly there are also side effects that technology has given us.

[JofryTheKing]

I believe that the development of technology, helps to develop the person himself. Technologies in varying degrees affect our life, but in the majority, they are simply necessary for us.

[RoronoaJorah]

Technology now become human life from home appliances to gadget and many things, people now are getting use to it, they made our life easier and make works faster we're now started to depend on them that we can't leave and live without them but when it becoming too much to the point of risking our health and family.. This should not be...everything must be done in moderation and too much exposure on it could also be harmful and losing our self effort and sense of value ob time.

[Naoko]

technologies give a lot of new opportunities, the main thing is that people mustn't become lazy and don't forget about internal development, and not only external

Technology contributed largely in Our society. It is the reason why we have convenient lives. Ofcourse everything that has a great effect in our society has its ups and down. It can have negative impact in our society but this is just normal as it had been a big help in our society. Technology has more benefits rather than its disadvantages, Our life today is proof that technology has done more good than bad in our life.

For me technology has its benefits to people there are a lot. i think the benefits that we can get is more than the side effects that it is giving us. many countries are very much advance in technology and those countries who are on the top in terms of the wealth. they are rich because they use technology to work for them and develop their country. technonology can do great things that human cannot.

[kwabeedat]

it all depends on how you utilize the technology you have at your disposal. one thing we must note is that you cant use your whole life to concentrate on one thing..you must give time for relaxation. that's why there's vacation for you to go out and relax but we on the digital world would like to work all day and all night which can affect the other aspect of your life. so in a nutshell, utilize technology well and you'll be very happy

In my opinion, technology is benefits a lot of people around the world. It is making our everyday lives better and making things easier for us. Gone are the days that people will have to make an effort  before acomplishing a task.If used the right way,technology can make people more efficient. Yes there are disadvantages like global warming.It is something that we can prevent but us humans were ignoring it. Technology is not to blame on this,  its all about negligence of humans. Wars are happening because of human conflict and technology is just a part of it. Wars happened even before technology was born.

[kidoseagle0312]

technology is really growing so fast, so many new inventions and knowlledge are being sprea all over the world .. the produce of high technologies are really geetting the  eyes of the human race , though we didnt recognize is well.. we are on a fast phase of oour lives were we are groing day nby day by new technologies but as we having this we are also having the pollution that we are giving  to mother earth! one more thing ! we are being so close to ouor friendd  even they are so far but we are far from each other even we are in one roof (home)

[bernashka]

In everyday life, a huge role is played by technology. At home, at work and studying, in the car and on the street - everywhere we meet representatives of technological progress. The computer, home appliances, mobile phones, car navigators - this and much more not only facilitates the implementation of everyday affairs, but also contributes to the more effective performance of many tasks.

yes little by little technological developments cause problems for humans because technological developments can create adverse impacts of warfare already using modern technology such as nuclear bombs the impact is very unusual when a nuclear war occurs.

[Kayla]

Maybe that's true, but in my country technology is very helpful to obtain information and solve problems. For example,  in rural areas technology is really needed since thr areas are far from town and it's really hard to reach it.

[Angna27]

Possible in the future as technology continue to rise and advance it my swallow us up. Our life them become dependent on technology, it has now become part of human system the everything we have consist of technologies, gadgets, computers, appliances, furniture and among others that is why while there is opportunity for us to enjoy simple things while we can we have to do so, we should not allow it to direct control our life. Basic things in life is still good as simple as it is.

[markers]

Technology opens new horizons for us in the approach how we interact with each other and nature. In many cases, these interactions brings more color in our life. However, simultaneously all the above raises new challenges that I tend to consider as the non-material costs of technology development.

Yes it Technology is hurting human behavior when it comes to technology sleeping problem is no.1 reason, but the positive side here is life is easy if we use this technology and applies in day to day job. it works well

[Snub]

I think that every thing in this world can be used for good as well as for harm...for example...everyone needs water, but in large quantities it can be devastating and so on...it is important to be harmonious in your life, then everything will be fine

[stephylarde]

Technology help human life to make their work easier. Technology help us to finish our job on time. Technology is the best invention that exist because it can do a lot to make our life better.

In every discovery there are side effects or even adverse effects of it. For example, tthe invention of cellular phones can lead to addiction to it. Microwaves for studying atoms can also be used to heat food in our household. Radiation that ia used to heat something can be used in chemotherapeutic purposes.

[vuvuvu1]

Technology is essential to our human life. Because it will make us less work time, human life becomes fuller and happier. Without technology, life is tedious and people will live a poor life.

[Mr. 1412]

Technology help human life to make their work easier. Technology help us to finish our job on time. Technology is the best invention that exist because it can do a lot to make our life better.

I agree with you. Technology has many benefits for our lives. But every thing in life will have a positive and negative effect.

Yes, I agree with you.
Let me give you an example. Too many mobile gadgets and internet devices resulted to the ADHD generation. Most people have ADHD and they don't even know it. Yes, including me.
What else? AI? Well, you've seen the movie Terminator, right?
Cant think of other examples for now.

It is true that technology innovated and upgraded what we are all facing in life, but the thing is no matter how we blame technology, it is mankind's fault in the end because technology will not just run without someone to operate or control it. That's why we shouldn't be blaming technology for these problems, but our own selves.

[maremostro]

The real issue could be technology affecting our world in a way that brings imbalance to yin and yang harmony in this world

[sotoshihero]

Technology should aid human life. We need it in our daily chores, in everything we do as of now. It shortens  our job with ease and accuracy. But sometimes, technology becomes a burden and when we used to it, we become lazy and deteriorate.I think we need to balance this,and do not depend on technology always. We have to develop human capital too to appreciate and use technology efficiently.

[mickymax777]

Technology is beautiful, it develops exponentially and is only limited to your imagination. I believe that if you can imagine it, it is already created and if not we must just create it. There is no reason that technology can not do what ever we want it to do.

Techs is only limited to our imagination - think big and do not take no as an excuse.

We do however need to disconnect from time to time just to maintain our human sanity.

Just my thoughts

[playful69]

I believe that modern technology can help us such as the modern technology we are inventing are creating more cures for dangerous diseases, and they are great for communicating such as for job assignment and even for school education. even though it can hurt people, it can also save people and help people in their lives.
might not be now, but we could find a way to heal radiation or even use radiation to our benefit in some way, whether it cures us or makes us more able to do something.

[UzumakiSakuragi]

The  impacts of Tech its in  good and bad way at the same time. The main and most important advantage of it, its the ability to make our life easier  and it helped us to learn more about our world. Its main disadvantage is the fact that we have put too much trust  into it, that can backfire sometimes and the fact we are replacing our natural gifts with human-made things.The point is:  "let  it make your life better but don’t let it replace your life".

 Technology is God's given gift to mankind to developed and used for Good.but greedyness of others control and used it for there own advantage..still it is up to us to decide..

[FUD Expert]

I believe that technology help us more. There are just really bad people who take advantage of the innovation in our modern world to spread sufferings and misery.

[PIR]

Technology is part of growth economically, socially and  globally this serve as a sign that people's mind is indeed developing and brilliant that they can create something like these there are also some pros and cons of it and it's all depend on how are you going to let your life swallow or shape by it.. if you let yourself swallow by it system that you're so hook on it and find your life only revolve in it that you lose you touch to your love ones by having -heart to heart simple personal talk without gadget  that would be good and meaningful.. but technology can be use as well for connecting people into two different world  and make good use of it that is also wonderful.. he truth is its all up to you!

Technology doesn't hurt us at all. We hurt ourselves period. You can say that gadgets like phones and tablets shorten our attention span but the truth is we ourselves don't have the discipline to put it down and look at the person in front of us and have an actual conversation. You say that it affect our children with they're eyes and causes them to shrink their brain, i say divert their attention to something else and actually restrict them not forbid them to use technology.

Technology is awesome and does us great good. The only problem is we actually dont have any discipline in our selves to the point we're actually addicted to it. Do we blame morphine if it does it's work and person died being overdosed by it? Do we blame the car if a drunk driver crashes it. Do we blame a gun for killing a person. Nope, we should have enough discipline ourselves to use technology not the other way around.

It is your choice if you want to be taken by the technology. But the only thing why technology is invented is to make life easy to be controlled by it. Don't let the technology control you.

[LadyBB]

The practical use of scientific knowledge in industry and every day life has a negative influence in human life.

[nodtaut7]

I think technology is doing its part to try to do good to us but it is ourselves that are trying to divert its way towards bad path

[hoaryaltitudev]

I am not a much tech savvy. I believe that real life enjoyment is far better than indulging quality time in technologies

[11adamsBTC]

We cant restrain from using technologies ever. Everything from the shirt to shoe all are a kind of mini techs. How can we erradicate all of them?

[potterbean5]

Yes the side effecs of technology is much more than its real effects. These effects can merge to be even fatal for human race

[tiar4dewie]

Another thing that becomes a serious problem. The new Innovations of the created man, indirectly create a boomerang for humans. How smoke and industrial waste that spewed some indrustri, radiation rays magnetic electrons from the signals. All this threatens survival for the next generation

[bhabygrim]

It is true that we are living our daily life with a technology beside us I mean there are people who couldn't get a day without holding their phone or gadget,
But we could always limit our self to have some time with our family ,Technology is eating most of our time we are always in front of the computer or the cellphones ,
We should always take care on what we have not just our gadget but also the people around us.

[bossloccox]

People are greatly benefiting from technology. Let's say technology has a bad impact on human's life. But it still a good effect in our everyday's life. Those different machines or appliances at home that they invented and discovered  that will help every people to lessen their works at home. That was a great help for every mother inside the house. And people have become more comfortable now than before, due to the advancement of technology....

[Obeng minn]

The development of technology has influenced humans, without being aware of the development of human technology to be victims. for example being lazy, lack of social life as well as increasing unemployment volume.

[g-unit]

Technologies have no consciousness. Other people are hurting us but not technologies. Stupid, evil, greedy and selfish people make our life worse. Knowleges make our life better and convenient instead of that.

[sathi7890]

Technology uses the knowledge of science to develop various products, machinery and methods for improving human life. As scientists research on electricity, they create our knowledge. By using this scientific knowledge-based technology, machines like refrigerators, television, mobile phones, electric lights etc. have been invented.

This also applies in fact the effects of great technology will affect the new mind polo as well as the lesser family time he prefers to play mobile phones. fraud and crime will increase because of the ease of technology for humans. so be more careful to face technological developments in this year and in the future.

you can always opt out. No one is stoping you from moving to the country side and live in a selfreliant life style.

I'm sure that advancement of technology has many good effect on us but all of those positive effects has a counterpart which is the negative side. We all know technology has makes our daily activities, task,workloads more easier and faster but moat of the people are being lazy just because they are all know that there's technology that will accomplish anything.

[tranquangvinh]

Every thing has two sides, good and bad. Even technology, too, has a positive and a negative side, depending on how we use technology.
If you use technology positively and use it properly, it will help you a lot in your life. Conversely, if you do not know how to use them,
it will cause you many negative things.
To me, the technology is almost harmless, it does not impact me badly because I know how to use it.

[SkyFlakes]

Technology becomes more advanced everyday. It makes everything easy to do. Everything have always a positive and a negative side so as the technology. We can have benefits on it if we would use it properly which is aligned to its very purpose. But if we wouldn't used it in proper way, that where negative effects will came along. Technology's effects just like other things will always depends on how will we used it. We do should always be accountable on what we do so don't be shocked on what will happen after you do something.

[vofkin78]

Technology is a tool, and it is up to a human how to use it. It's easy to say that technology is responsible for all the evils of the World while I guess it takes some balls to own up our weaknesses. If there is a car accident, would you blame designers and engineers of the car or the owners and drivers?

[g-unit]

Technologies are hurting us in some way and benefiting in some way. In my opinion, many people are just not smart enough to use modern technologies correctly ans wisely. That's why we have so many problems nowadays. So we need good education for everyone to avoid such problems in future.

Everything depends on who possesses the technology.

For example, nuclear can be used to power up millions of homes, or it can be used to destroy the whole humanity.

Even if you think of a caveman, the stone would be used for lighting up the bonfire, or as a weapon.

Everything is in our mentality and technology is just the tool.

 Technologies are helping us thats a act, and God let people discover things for His Glory and it is for His greatest plan.  All things happen for a reason as indicated in the bible.  There is nothing wrong improving One's life the real problem is the people using it.

In the 21 century, technology plays an important role in the constitution of human nature and identity.Humans have always shaped and extended themselves by virtue of technical tools.By mediating human experiences and practices, technologies have come to play an important role in our moral actions and decisions.

[bakekang]

Technology brought both negative and positive effect to our lives. But it has so many positive affect to us. Technologies makes our lives easier and more comfortable, improves communication with other people/countries,  and through advanced technologies improves ones lifestyle.

[mrphilippine]

Technology have positive and negative effect, it actually makes our life easier to live with. But it also consumes time especially when where using it too much. It's just in the process of being responsible user and some applied disciple in using and consuming technology.

[mrsbee]

Thats true when becomes to future technology it actually makes our life easier to live with.but technology have some positive and negative effect...

[spongegar]

It's not the technology that is the problem. No matter how great a tech is, it depends on the person who is actually using it. For example, people were raised in arms because of the creation of the printing press, same goes for canned goods, then the gun now the internet. All these sre merely tools. The problem is us humans. We have no concept of waiting, of self restraint or even consideration for others. All we think about is ourselves that is why we use such technologies and view the bad effects and blame the tools themselves.

[mdhedayetullah27t]

With the help of modern technology, it is easy to work with technology and without any risk. Various aspects of technology are the main benefits of technology science in human welfare, the main benefits are human welfare. Different disciplines are making technological improvements. Some of its significant aspects are, 1. Industrial sector, 2. Agriculture Extraction Technology, 3. Technology in the field of education, 4. Communication Technology, 5. Technology in medical field, 6. Technology in the field of application.

[Mariksa]

There are a lot of benefits of technology like the progress of the medical sphere, new kinds of electronic devices, internet and so on. But there are also a lot of disadvantages like military weapons (but even without this there would still be wars), new sicknesses that are developing because of the chemicals and etc. So as you can see, technology can be good and bad for humans.

[ThunderQatar]

Technology allows us to re-identify the source of human life as our onto-genetic alien fore-bearers once practiced on various indigenous populations of heretofore innocent bystanders: examples of this are the 1979 classic, the China Syndrome, which was an allegory for the methodical Raping of Nankin by Japanese Imperial Dragons, for their innability to conform to NAZI TECHNOLOGY.

My passover symbol is baced on re-asserting the ancient zin and zang of the Kyogoru kingdom, which little known to many world sociologiests was the predecessor to the now famous ebba nd flow of the yin and gang , a mere drop of salt in the heartland of SEOUL.

Look at the QualComm deal,  many world bankers were planning on using this technology to replace the manufacturing base on TAIWAN, which most certainly would have led to CHINESE OCCUPATION OF TAIWAN.   

This reliance on technology would definitely have led to a GRAVITY CREDIT CRISIS, as most good maritime historians have admitted is based on the demi-urge vortex generated in the bowels of the ASIAN BERMUDA {right across the way from the regular bermuda, by the way}.


COULD this potential meltdown in the SOUTH CHINA SEA be averted by technology.  Possibly

I think one of the main concerns for people in terms of technological advancements is the power it could give to the individual, destructive power that it. They say with moors law the speed of advancement increases by 2x. The same can be said for an individuals power to destroy the world, it is increasing at an equivalent pace. What happens when you can print guns in your bedroom or create a killer virus in your bedroom?

This is very pessimistic but constantly advancing technologically can have great dangers.

It really boils down to balance, doesn't it?  Most people can see the positive impact of self-driving cars:  eliminate most accidents, allow people to use the time they would have used for driving for some other purpose, etc.  But do you want a robot to hold your child and sing him/her to sleep and subplant that essential human connection?  Probably not.  We will need to get better at assessing the long-term cost-benefits of technology in our lives.  Right now, many people don't really understand or care about what they are giving up in order to acquire convenience or efficiency.  People need purpose and meaning in their lives or life has no point.  Technology cannot give us those; they must come from within.

[Safebit.io]

It's a give and take relationship.

Technology helped us solve famine, plague and war. This is a concrete fact.

Famine - In developed countries, you are more likely to die from obesity than starvation. That's because we learned to grow food in abundant qualities.

Plague - We have developed medicine and vaccines and irradicated diseases that used to kill millions. We still have cancer to solve and AIDS to cure, but we are doing much better than before. People often live to 80 years and more.

War - War used to be the default state once. There was no such thing as "peace". Sometimes there was a state of "no war", but people lived in constant fear of a war breaking out all the time. In contrast, today it is incredibly unlikely that Germany and France will go to war. Even the US and Russia - it makes so much more financial sense to collaborate than to fight. Yes, there are still wars in the middle east, but that is because those countries didn't really enter the 21st century yet - they didn't move from a resource-based economy to a knowledge-based one. When your world revolves around resource scarcity, you fight wars. When it revolves around knowledge scarcity, you start working together.

And we can thank technology for all of that. We have built a knowledge-based economy. And the Bitcoin is a prime example of that.

On the other hand, technology creates other problems. Global warming is a great example. But even that can be solved through technology. It's our responsibility to power through the side effects of technology through even better technology.

[Sinerg]

Plague - We have developed medicine and vaccines and irradicated diseases that used to kill millions. We still have cancer to solve and AIDS to cure, but we are doing much better than before. People often live to 80 years and more.

AIDS does not exist, it's a fictitious myth, another way to destroy the population.

The Great AIDS Debate with Peter Duesberg slams the medical establishments, HIV division on the Acronym-AIDS, it's not a disease but a concocted artificial construct to sell toxic death pills and to keep people in fear of their own underlying real problems that are called "AIDS"

For me, especially after reading works on virtual reality such as Infinite Reality: Avatars, Eternal Life (2011) by Bailenson, J., & Blascovich, J. (2011), I believe it will be technology that will help support the survival of humanity.

For me, especially after reading works on virtual reality such as Infinite Reality: Avatars, Eternal Life (2011) by Bailenson, J., & Blascovich, J. (2011), I believe it will be technology that will help support the survival of humanity.

For me technology is giving as a positive and negative way in living. Like we people tend to include the social media in our daily routine activities its whether good or a bad thing. It depends on how people see technology or how people used technology whether in a good way or bad.

[Clif4d]

Technology is like a coin which has both positive and negative sides. We are the deciders and we have to choose how to use it. The usage of technology for over exploitation of resources should be always avoided. If we use it for positive things, it will have positive effect of our lives and vice versa. Nobody would oppose the development of technologies in any sector but the developments should be in a positive way and they should not have any negative impact on present or future generations...

[dark1234]

the progress of life era we can not avoid including in terms of technology that is increasingly sophisticated and rapidly so that something that was once impossible and for now it is real but in rapid global technology stored things that could have a negative impact both on ourselves, the environment and the universe by that we must be wise in addressing it all so there is no regret of the negative impact of technology

If your are on facebook ,twitter or other social media just looking at other peoples lifes and you give your real name and surname to the media and your life is more online than in reallity with more friend online than in reallity than smartphone is pure evil for you and you became technology slave ...,but if you use technology to educate yourself or working some kind of job for your self anything thats make some profit and improving your skills or your knowledge is great...however it can be good and bad for humans its individual

Technology has unravel the mystery clouding every form of difficulty we encounter in life starting from transportation, banking, agricultural, industrial and in school. For example in banking sector, technology has changed the way old system of transaction to digital system and as I'm writing this in no distant time blockchain technology which is weapon of massive disruption interms of speed,accountablity and scalebilty
Will change the way transactions are done.Technology has reduced the workforce because what one hundred men can do in three days, technology will do it in minutes and seconds.

But it is us human, who have a conscience, self-control and a moral compass. So we can’t blame technology for human errors. Technology has made our lives so much easier. The advances in technology now are so remarkable. Did you know that virtual and augmented reality are instrumental tools in health, medicine and technology now? Technology is designed to enhance and elevate our lives. At the end of the day, we still have the freedom of choice to use it or not, to use it for good or for evil.

Technology can do so much good to human life. But it all depends on how well we manage it. For instance, technology that is driven solely by the sense of profit is highly destructive. Very little good can come out of it. When you're thinking only profit, you churn out every technological piece not considering how useful it is to mankind. Sadly that's the case today. So many products out there are actually not doing us any good. So, for now, I think technology is doing us a lot of harm. This must not stop us however from seeing the great good it brings us. Everything surely has its pros and cons. The former in this case seems to outweigh the latter.

I believe technology will change the world to non-identification already in this century.
People who are accustomed to living in the old way will find it difficult to adapt in the new world of artificial intelligence and machine learning.

generation has being a part of our existence, even though it got here with some risk but it has accomplished us more properly than evil.

I think the current technology has balanced pluses and minuses because not everyone uses technology wisely, as we all know that many country has nuclear powers that are ready to fire to destroy their enemies without realizing they destroy themselves.

I think this is the case, technological progress, specially chemical pollutants to the surroundings has been destroyed, and now the situation has been very bad.I think this is the case, technological development, mainly chemical pollution to the environment has been destroyed, and now the situation has been very awful.

[Gleoth]

I think technology can benefit us but it can also be painful for us. It depends on each of us want in which technology is it? Whether the technology will be used to improve the things or want to menjulumuskan us of crimes that can be painful Roll Eyes

Technology gives us a lot of benefits and makes things easier for us.
