The Ugly Face Of Technology
Technology has two faces: the creator, and the destroyer.
Recently, I came across an article on the latest cell phone model complete with upgraded services…another technological breakthrough.
Technology never ceases to amaze me. It has made lives, including mine, a lot easier with the introduction of push buttons. Even fashion is woven into technology.
Who can resist it? I am even fascinated with one of its products, the Internet.
Centuries ago, who would have thought humans could fly or talk with a person miles away? What power; what prowess!
But technology's benefits are nullified by its Pandoran gifts.
Weapons like guns and nuclear bombs, created to protect and defend, can bring annihilation if they fall into the wrong hands.
Look at automated machines, which are
threatening workers' employment. Machines are taking the place of many laborers.
Technology gives us the perception of a bright future for mankind. But it also brings about destruction.
Technology can save lives and enhance our way of living. It is an expression of human intelligence, thirst for advancement and restlessness.
Technology is only good or evil once defined by the hands that hold its reins. It entails, therefore, a great sense of responsibility.
