Why do we say that technology is important today?

I believe that we always make the statement that technology is important in our present day because what we call present day is our closest needs, but in reality the word present day does not mean that in the past technology was no less important than it is today.

I even think that historically it is difficult to mark an exact era in which we could demarcate a before without technology and an after with technology, and I am one of those who think that technology has always existed, the only difference is that it has always been impregnated for each era and each time with more strength than in the near past.

Man's daily life is that life marked by a series of activities that mark his survival, therefore man has always sought to survive with the advances and discovery that his capacity for reasoning gives him. We call this advance technology and it has been inferred historically so that today humanity carries out relevant transformations in its natural and artificial states of development.

Now, if we analyze and start from the fact that technology has always existed, we must talk about the way in which technology favorably impacts the times of man and his permanence as a species on our planet. Technology and its advances certainly transform our environment in a very peculiar way, because when we look at our closest past, we see that what a cutting edge technology means when compared to our present, we see it as an obsolete technology, but this really becomes a cycle because these technological advances are always lived by updating at a dizzying rate.

From my perspective it is already indifferent to talk about the role that technology occupies or plays in the present, because logically we are always made to see that technological advances do well in our evolution towards our lifestyle, so I think what is really important is to talk about how far technology will continue to advance or if on the contrary technology finds some point of stagnation where it is impossible to continue advancing, tell me what you think, how far do you think it is possible to advance and reach in the distant future the technological advances that continue to develop?

I think a big difference between the technology of the past and that of the present is that today it is within everyone's reach compared to the past.
If we think of the first use of the Internet in the 1960s as a US defense and espionage system.
I don't think that technological discoveries ever have a point of stagnation because it's in the DNA of human beings to always look forward, moreover today artificial intelligence comes to the rescue. Thanks for sharing your post that really offers interesting food for thought.

An important contribution that you make as a comment in this post, greetings and thanks for sharing

I think now in the present age we are, man has depend on the role technology plays and most times I tend to imagine what will the world look like without the presence of technology therein

It is difficult to imagine a world without technology simply because technology has always existed. Greetings and thanks for your contribution

Greetings friend @carlos84, I believe that technology has always existed, since any invention made by man to improve in some way his lifestyle can be considered a technological advance, for example, before the plow was made by man with brute force, then he improved the tools to be pulled by oxen, instead now a tractor is used; ink and paper was a great advance in written communication, then printing and now we write on a computer or a cell phone. So technology will always be in evolution, the difference between ancient and modern technology is the accessibility we have to it, and I don't think it will stagnate, I think we will always be looking for ways to facilitate and improve our lifestyle or explore new horizons, so we will always be in constant technological development.

Great comment that you present us @emiliomorn, thank you very much for your contribution. Greetings

Greetings friend @carlos84, it is a pleasure to visit again your so nourished blog, extraordinary your reflections as usual, our look has been a reliable witness of the great advances and with it you contribute that the technology does day by day to the social well-being of the humanity, always emphasizing the pros and cons since this characteristic is found in all aspects of our lives, however, today from my point of view for the realization of any of our activities depend increasingly on the progress that can give us this important area, the scope of technological advances in the future are seen as exponential.

We would only have to evaluate the amount of raw material available for the realization of components that print more technology to the obsolete devices, since as we know these reserves are finite.
