Have we become dependent on technology?

Hello to all my companions of this great community of Steemit !, today I will comment my opinion on the technology and how it returns us little by little Dependent on Her.

Real progress is what makes technology available to everyone

For me technology is one of the most important bases of humanity, because when we speak of it we refer to each of the advances that we as human beings have, all of them with the knowledge and skills that we possess, in order to achieve that Our environment more Optimized and Efficient.

All this has caused that our day to day is surrounded by technological advances that facilitate and streamline every process and task we do, But is this bad?, No! Not at all, on the contrary it is very good for the advance of humanity, without technology we would still be beings underdeveloped.

Technology feeds itself, technology makes more technology possible

But ... So where is the bad?, the bad is in the Dependence that we have on her. Every day that passes the activities become more automatic and easy, so we choose to always do it that way, this makes us Depend on Excess of Her, to the point of not doing our activities, just for not having at hand a technological instrument that facilitates it. Our society has lost that Basic Survival Knowledge that our ancestors had, which means that if you do not have it easy, do not want to do it.

An example can be Computers for today's teenagers, sometimes they spend more than 70% of their day in front of them, this causes that they can not develop social skills correctly, causing a Bad General Development due to the addiction to computers.

Of course this Does not cover all people, or all types of technology, but these examples make us see how a technological advance can Affect a society when we become dependent on she.

I fear the moment in which humanity has been overtaken by technology, the world will only have a generation of idiots

So is it good or bad ?, Well ... it depends, that is, like everything in this life, technology must have a Level of Control As far as dependence is concerned, we humans we must learn to differentiate when technology is managing our lives completely, "I can not do anything, there is no internet" / "I can not go to my school that is a couple of blocks away because there is no transportation" / "I have nothing fun to do because I do not have video games." These types of phrases make us see that on many occasions we are totally dominated by technology and forget that there are other ways of doing things, without so much ease .

We must have a balance between the correct use of technology and the dependence on it.

The real problem is not whether the machines think, but whether the men do.
