The only way?

Some people will say that, “Modern digital technology is a blessing and the only way forward”. But is this true? Is modern digital technology the only way forward? In this article we will look closer into what modern technology means to us and what the consequences of it is or will be.

Firstly, the technology can be very helpful and it can be used as a tool. If you are going to take the bus for example, you can check on the internet the times it drives by your nearest bus stop. Or if you’re going to make dinner, you can search for different recipes. That is much easier than checking it in a book. When you have to buy a new phone, there is probably thousands of websites where you can see recommendations about the product.

Secondly, the technology is the future. In the past hundred years, the technology has come so far and can be used to so much things. Like the cars for example, the development has been amazing. From the old cars that did not have much equipment to the cars they produce today with all the new technology. Think about how the cars will look in another hundred years.

However, there are not just good things about the modern technology. While some people use the technology as a helpful tool, some others just sit home and play videogames all day. This can lead to lots of problems. Like getting addicted. Many peoples who has been sitting home and played games, got addicted. Some peoples even stopped going out and became unsocial. Not to mention all the health problems that have showed up. Many people are getting something called “tablet neck” because of hours spent using their phones or tablets/iPad’s.

So maybe the modern technology is the only way forward, but like almost everything else, it comes with and without benefits. Therefore, we have to be careful and use the technology wisely. Because the development will probably keep going on.
