technology a treat or a promise

Technology, a threat or a promise? Technology is now the talk of town. Technology has improved over the years, new gadgets and cures are now available. Technology are improving our lives and making work a lot easier. I agree that technology is more than a promise than a threat.

Technology has been constantly increasing itself. From the invention of the first aeroplane to now the fastest jet plane. Technology has improved for us man. We use technology for every aspect in our daily lives now. For both entertainment and work. We now have the latest LCD television, mp3 and all other gadgets. These technologies are use for our own entertainment to enjoy lives or relieve stress. There are other technology like the photocopy machine or the printer, these new item are used in work, these gadgets makes our lives easier and work more efficient. We are able to produce things faster. These new technology are improving themselves everyday.

Vaccines, the antibiotics, these cures are created just because of technology. Cures are useful now to cure illnesses. Back in those days, there was no cure polio, but now there are vaccines to prevent polio. Many other illness or diseases have vaccines to prevent or cures. Technology has save many lives and this helps the population and economy a lot. Technologies are a great help to the medical help.

Technologies could also harm people for example the creation of the computer virus or the invention machineries. Machines are able to cut down the forest faster. Contributing to global warming. Computer viruses harm the internet world causing the economy to drop. The creation of bombs and other weaponries causing war and conflicts. All these technology is too threatening the world. We must not let this happen. The technology world might turn into a world of chaos. With technologies, we are able to counter this dangerous aspect but one day technologies might turn back on us.

Technologies helpfulness or danger to us, it is up to us to decide but technology will forever be with us and we can never run away from it. We must use it wisely and never let man’s creation destroy man.
