Some people think that the development of technology has bad
effects on society. In their point of view, the fast technology development may
lead to the destruction of the society. If that happens, the whole society
structure and norms will be broken and a new era will rise among the people.
I am strongly against it. In my opinion, technology is good
for humanity because of many reasons. The faster development, the better.
Technology development will create a better version of the previous invention
in order to help humanity to survive. Technologies were meant to be made so
that human will work more efficiently with the help of technology.
The first reason on why the world wouldn’t be a better place
without technology is because people have already been strongly attached to it.
You can’t just suddenly erase technology from the world. If you do that the
humanity’s chance on survival will greatly decrease because most people nowadays
can’t do anything without the help of technology. They were born with
technologies around them twenty-four hours a day. You still can’t erase
technology from the world although you do it slowly because the people will
protest and there will be riots everywhere. That will happen because having
technologies is one of people’s rights and they will fight for it. They will
fight for what they think is justice for them, and that is done by getting
their right back.
Humans are social beings and they need to interact with each
other to sustain their happiness and sanity in order to survive. Technology is
one of so many ways for people to connect with other people. In fact, it is the
most used way to interact with other people anywhere on this earth where we
live in. If technology is gone, it will take some time just to ask other
persons how they’re doing.
The last reason is without technology, activities and work
will get harder because there’s no technology to help lighten the works. Works
like producing something in massive numbers will be very hard with just using
human’s power.
In short, I think, the world wouldn’t be a better place
without technology because technology helps humanity survive and connect with
each other.
