Nowadays we are more likely dependent on technology we lose the ability to survive without it, and if there is no technology in this world maybe :
- We have more free time then we have now.
- We have to learn how to survive in the wilderness.
- We would basically be like stone aged people.
- People will start looking for their own food by means of hunting.
- Country will not progress.
- It’s hard to communicate with each other.
- Without proper medical equipment, it would cause people’s death due to improper medication.
As
long as there have been people, there has been technology. Indeed, the
techniques of shaping tools are taken as the chief evidence of the beginning of
human culture. On the whole, technology has been a powerful force in the
development of civilization, all the more so as its link with science has been
forged.
Technology—like language, ritual, values, commerce, and the arts—is an
intrinsic part of a cultural system and it both shapes and reflects the
system's values. In today's world, technology is a complex social enterprise
that includes not only research, design, and crafts but also finance,
manufacturing, management, labor, marketing, and maintenance.
In
the broadest sense, technology extends our abilities to change the world: to
cut, shape, or put together materials; to move things from one place to
another; to reach farther with our hands, voices, and senses. We use technology
to try to change the world to suit us better.
The changes may relate to
survival needs such as food, shelter, or defense, or they may relate to human
aspirations such as knowledge, art, or control. But the results of changing the
world are often complicated and unpredictable. They can include unexpected
benefits, unexpected costs, and unexpected risks—any of which may fall on different
social groups at different times. Anticipating the effects of technology is
therefore as important as advancing its capabilities.
