Today, technology is very important because it is used for almost everything.

In the world today, people cant't live without technologies such as television, smart phones, computer, gaming gadgets and other.

These technologies have slowly taken an essential part in people's day-to-day lives and being without technology would be hard for most of people. As every thing, technology has advantages and disadvantages they are mentioned below.

Advantages of technology

First, the revolution of technology is beneficial o humans for several reason. At the medical level, technology can help treat for people with harmful viruses and bacteria;

The invention of the computer was very important. communication is thus enhanced. and companies can communicate more easily with foreign countries. Research is also simplified.

For companies,progress in implementing strategic technology trend is helping them saving time and money. Exchanges are faster especially with the internet. sales and purchases are now facilitated and possible worldwide. This allows business to buy raw materials with discounts or at reduced prices. similarly, global tourism has grown.


Technology has also increased the productivity of almost every industry in the world. Thanks to technology, we can even pay with Bitcoin instead of banks. The digital coin has been such a game changing factor, that many realized that this the right that this is right time to involve in crypto world.


When observed more closely,  new things are discovered everyday.

Lets take for instance when radio waves were discovered, radio broadcasts followed suit almost immediately. The same applies to the television and electricity. If no one had discovered that electricity could be generated, then the entertainment industry wouldn't be at it's current stage of development.

In the modern industrial world, machines carry out most of the agricultural and industrial work and as a result, workers produce much exercise and work in safer environment.


Disadvantages and risks of technology

on the other hand, the evolution of modern technology has disadvantages, for example, dependence on new technology. Man no longer thinks , even calculator is good invention  no myan longer works on his mental calculation and his memory. The decline of  human capital implies an increase in unemployment. In some fields, devices can replace the human mind.


The use of technology certainly needs rule and new laws. For example internet use in an individual freedom. However, the invention of the atomic bomb can not be an  individual freedom. In fact, regulations are difficult to implement when these technologies are introduced- such as regulation surrounding the impending arrival of autonomous vehicles.

Finally, as most technological discoveries aim to reduce human effort, it would imply that more work is done by machines.  This equates to less work for people:  the human is becoming ever so obsolete day by day , as processor become automated and jobs are made redundant.

The negative impact of the influence if technology on children should not be underestimated as well.
