Technology Evaluation

There are many definitions to the word technology. One of them is – the branch of knowledge that deals with the creation and use of technical means and their interrelation with life, society, and the environment, drawing upon such subjects as industrial arts, engineering, applied science, and pure science.

Technology has many advantages as well as disadvantages. It could be as a gift from the gods but on the other hand, it could stab you in the back. Such as the quote of Mark Kennedy, which states, "All of the biggest technological inventions created by man - the airplane, the automobile, and the computer - says little about his intelligence, but speaks volumes about his laziness."

It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity just as Albert Einstein had said and I agree with him because it may be right that one machine can do the work of fifty ordinary man but no machine can do the work of an extraordinary man.

I agree with what you said about machines and technology in general has taken over our lives and even our jobs. We depend on them so much that people's true intelligence is not seen anymore, people's talents now go to waste as a result of these developments.
