Technology will prove to be the downfall of man ?
Answers
Answer:
Social media and mobile devices may lead to psychological and physical issues, such as eyestrain and difficulty focusing on important tasks. They may also contribute to more serious health conditions, such as depression. The overuse of technology may have a more significant impact on developing children and teenagers.
Answer:
I'd answer yes and no.
Simply put, technology is made to be used as an addition to each of our senses. For instance, as stated by Carl Jung, Sigmund Freud's student and the man who I have heard referred to as the "father of psychology," a pair of binoculars extends our sight, glasses improve our natural vision, and hearing aids are self-described.
In these and other, more comparable situations, I find that technology increases human potential and longevity. However, based on what I believe you are really talking about—social media, cellphones, television, and so on—clear it's that one of these has had a bigger impact on the "fall" of humanity than the others, even though they all have their share of responsibility.
As I will explain, this is my viewpoint;
So, what exactly is a downfall? As I read your title, I questioned myself this. Well, it's a decrease from what we could suppose to be the pinnacle of human ability.
Second, decline from what success?
Well, based on what I see and experience in my day-to-day life, it seems that we are only really realising that as our technological sophistication increases at rates faster than ever (in history), our personal exploration of the world's mysteries, social interaction with one another, and family traditions are dwindling.
The days when we focused on ourselves and on one another when considering our own evolution and the exploration of the globe for the betterment of our species are now dwindling.
Most people today believe that Google, Yahoo, or even sites like this, where there always seems to be an answer to anything you may question, contain the answer to everything. I'll also say that we now depend more than ever on a whisper in the corner form of inquiry and communication. "Evolving the start and finish points continuously"
The average person no longer tests any theory, finding, or thoughts. Today I see that humanity waits for the next big bold titled discovery on their phones, TVs, or rarely local papers that they the people will believe until a year or three later when the finding turns out to be politically incorrect "biology," or that the findings are not cost effective to certain products. The conclusions thus shift. (Just take a look at coffee; one year it's horribly carcinogenic, the next it's the key to eternal youth.)
Before I go on, let me just remark that technology has not necessarily led to the demise of humanity; rather, it has slowed down our advancements and breakthroughs because, to put it simply, In these industrialised nations, we have grown accustomed to what we already possess. I would describe it as a stagnation in civil progress.
The cause? We think we already know the answer to everything, just like we do here on this app. If not? Look it up or ask someone who is more knowledgeable than I am.
Today, we are witnessing that.
Will that alter? Yes. It will change once our phones are used only as research instruments, allowing us to test and apply our newly acquired information.
The majority of us are using our tiny technological building pieces of amusement, propaganda, or control in ways that are keeping us in place over the long term, even though it's great right now.
