...over our lives.

We are living in the age of modern technology.

Smart devices, Internet, digital money, artificial intelligence...

Nowadays, we are all using smart devices. We have smartphones, smart TVs and other smart devices. Astificial intelligence is all around of us, and maybe, we forgot about the real intelligence. We do not know how to solve our peoblems anymore because we are uysing smart devices in that purpose. We expect our computer, our phone or any other device to find the solution for everything. There is calculator, calendar, maps, mail box, there is everything on our smart devices.

We are using digital money. Crypto currencies are taking place of the real money that is made out of metal and paper. We are paying services and products on the Internet by using our digital wallets for crypto currencies. It takes only few second, I will repeat in case that you are not sure what you have rad FEW SECONDS to buy something. Could you imagine that 20 years ago? Were you thinking that you will be able to buy something online, and to get it delivered at your home?

We are playing video games, instead of playing games at home, with our friends. We are not going to pubs to play games, for example darts. We are not playing cards, monopoly... I mean we are playing those games, but they are either games that we instal on our computers, consolas, phones, either we are playing online. There is a online betting and online gambling.

I need to clear something. I love new technologies. I love smart devices. I love digital money. I am using them! They are the best! They are making my life much easier! But we should not lose the control over our lives. We should not let techonoliges be those who are controling us. We should control them. They are here for us. And, we can live without technologies!

Progress is like water, you can't stop it. The only way to do that is to destroy everything, and I hope that will not happen.

We should not destroy everything, we just need to learn how ot use it. We should not let the technology control us.

Life goes on, but I think that young people are less intelligent nowadays than before 50 years and that is not good at all.

It also has many harmful effects to our health. People can get sick from using too much technology. Unfortunately, many people do not understand that.

She has definitely taken control, and I believe that as time goes on, it will not become more pronounced. That is why it is necessary to educate ourselves and to be aware of both the good and bad things it brings us.

Young people see only the good side. Young people are playing video games, making you tube videos, watching videos, using devices in every single branche of their lives and that is not good at all.

I think that during the 40s and 50s people were happier than we today. They had what they had, they looked how they lookd, and they did not have the Instagram to see what they do not have.

Well done for the article! I totally agree with you! Smartphones And all l new technology should be used for smart things and not to spend most of our time playing games.

Games are okay, but we should play them in ersonal, with other people. For example monopoly, darts, bowling... We should not use smart devices for everything.

That is great! I understand that some people are working online, and that they need computers and smartphones. But, we can reduce using of smart devices when we are not working. For example, we can play real instead of video games.
