Technology had developed from the invention of the lightbulb to the newest iPhone 12. Imagine you lived in the 19th or 20th century. How could you survive without your phone? How could they survive without their phone?

This showed how we nowadays are so desperate for technology. But, this also shows how much humanity is growing and will grow in the future.

Humanity seems so successful. But, if you look deep, we realize that we aren’t too successful. We have developed such technology that is destroying our lives.

Take an example; gaming. Most of the younger generation right now are manipulated. Manipulated by video games. We have created such a thing that can turn humanity into a disaster.

Technology has its up and downs. Social media is in most lives of adults and can ruin part of it. For example, on a phone, most people, probably even you have social media. Whenever you check a phone when you are bored, what is one of the first things you go to? You probably go on some type of social media. Then you are stuck to it. Checking continuously, it’s so hard to stop.

This is the problem. Some technology is useful and some can hurt you. Even watching T.V, when you turn on the screen, you watch something. All that while you could be watching a live play right in front of your own face. A T.V. is just a shortcut, not to pay for a ticket, not to drive, which can be reasonable.

But, what else could you be doing at that time? You can go outside, play a board game, make some art, etc. There are thousands of things you can do instead of watching TV, checking your phone, or playing a video game. Why would you rather want to check a friend's post on Facebook rather than to talk to someone and make a new friend?

Technology is an addiction. Technology has more to it. It is supposed to help out and make our lives easier. The thing is that while technology is growing, it is taking away lower-paid jobs. If you take the invention of the automobile, it shows that in the 19th century, there were people building automobiles. Now, there are robots. These robots are taking away tons of jobs. Robots can help in factories, farms, labs, etc.

These are the reasons that technology is harmful to humanity. Thank you for reading!
