Are We Too Dependent on Technology: Pros and Cons

Have you ever had the thought of how much everyone is depending on technology.Everything in this world depends on technology, you just have to think about it. The actions we do today that involve technological help are uncountable. According to a study by global tech protection an average person checks their phone every 12 minutes or at least 80 times a day. Most of the simplest task that need to be completed by humans are completed with the use/help ,or complete completion, of technology. In some cases technology could be a benefit to the humane society but in some scenarios it can be a lethal weapon or a harmful toy that we humans do not understand how to use. Are we too dependent on technology?

To begin talking about this problem you need to understand what technology means. Technology is the use of machinery or scientific knowledge in everyday tasks or impractical ways of completing a task.

If you think about AI, Artificial intelligence, AI could have a really big benefit on the world. AI could enhance efficiency and a recent example of tht is automobiles. It took years to develop regulation around the industry to make it safe. That said AI today is a huge benefit to society because it enhances our efficiency and throughput. On the other hand AI brings some cons to this world for example job loss. This is arguably the number one downside to AI consistently highlighted as a doom and gloom scenario were workers are laid off, unable to outperform machines.

Any technological advancements that this world has come to has had a benefit. First of all technology helps us to get to different places faster than usual, or with transportation. Transportation comes in different varieties, automobiles, scooters, motorcycles, planes and rockets. All of the transportation variations listed before help us to move from a place to another faster than walking by foot. Rockets would help us to explore the space with potential to find something living which will give this world an idea of what other life could be in different climates. At this point mostly scientists acquire the most advanced technology to help them advance in our world.

Research shown that an average human being checks their phone at least every 12 minutes. Most of those time would he for no reason. Just think of the times when you checked your phone just to look at it or make sure you still have it or just did not lose it. First thing we would do if we would lose our phone is loose our trust in everybody else. For example if you would lose your phone or some sort of device nearby your friends you would first ask everyone if anyone took it.

In conclusion, our society is very dependent on technology but in everything, there are pros and cons.
