Today’s world cannot be possibly imagined without various human technological inventions. The innovative gifted mind of various achievers has made our lives today far more comfortable than it used to be, from dishwasher of a housewife to online memory database of a multinational company has brought tremendous change in our life and responsibilities. Science and its inventions are a gift to mankind and saying so, I have no doubt in my mind.
Apart from lavishing life and entertainment technology has also given us security example various security alarms systems and software’s that not only serves residential but security in banks, etc. The technology has empowered us with various equipment that can identify any person whose records are in data through the retina, fingerprint scan, heartbeat rate, etc that is a great support system for law and enforcement teams.
But everything has its pros and cons, the technological dependence of humans has extended to such a great extent that now, they don’t even think of any manual options. People try to make everything as much automated as possible and it’s not laudable in various concerns, For instance, due to revolutionary development in bank working system management forced many employees to take voluntary retirement, the decrease in demand of human labor lead to the sudden downfall of employment in developing and underdeveloped countries. hence increasing unemployment and poverty on a global scale.
The cons have further stretched their arms on generation today and next, youths today find it almost impossible to do things without technology, they have become totally gadget freak that not only affects their physical health but mental health too.
For instance, students use the internet to do homework, assignments and even research work although its a helping tool but it degrades student’s imagination and exploration power, it limits their mind in most cases. Due to the fact of finding the essential answers required they just copy paste and don’t even try and understand about it many times they don’t even know what they have written, thus the given work that was to learn and find out, was not achieved or we can say it was a fiasco. For every problem, we have the prior online solution and hence the new thinking and innovation are fading.
In ancient times though the man was not technologically strong he was able to survive in far more worst life-threatening situations then we could the possible images, the key essence in his survival was quick thinking and maximum use of the mind , lack of dependency this all leads to it, but today’s humans are too vulnerable.
Thus I feel the balance should be maintained excessive dependency on anything is bad. This topic itself is an innovative idea to bring a drastic revolutionary change in today’s era.
