Smarter Humans, Slower Efforts: The Paradox of Technology

Technology is something that I surely taken up a lot of space in our lives. It has slowly integrated itself into almost every aspect of our lives nowadays, which is something that has been happening gradually every year. In recent decades, the pace has picked up quite a bit. Now we see right from the moment that we wake up and till the moment we go to sleep and even in our sleep we are surrounded with some Wayne with the technology itself and that is something that is surely a question to be asked to our ownself that is it something that is making our life even efficient and making a smarter at the end of the day or it is something that is the reason we are getting laser day by day.

In the past, when Technology was something that was not so advanced, at least the way it is right now, people believed that in those days, everyone used to work very hard. Physical activities was something that was Paramount another same time the creative thinking as well as the critical thinking was something that was also talk not which was something that was forcing us to find out solutions to Complex problems as well as innovation was something that was at its peak because there was no other aspect that could assist in that which was forcing us to do all of those things and make those decisions.

But in the present when we are surrounded with so much of Technology in almost every aspect that ability of problem solving and innovative thinking has been somewhat dependent on these particular aspect a little bit more than what it used to be completely getting dominated by our thinking as now we are also having access to information in a month easier manner which can also help in innovation in a very rigorous manner but at the same time it is also making us more dependent on it.

This is a debate that has both of its side and everyone of those aspect seems to be quite relevant but at the same time there needs to be a little bit of understanding to think about how technology is contributing in our own life nowadays and if it is making us more lazyor or the reason because of which we are getting our intelligence more enhanced.

Everything about how technology is making us even more advanced then it is allowing us to be having any kind of information on our fingertips which we can be using to be utilizing it in a more efficient manner which was something that was not available in the past and researchers used to be pay even more efforts to be extracting that same amount of information which is available in second in the present.

Technology has now enabled collaboration to be something that is very easily done in any kind of aspect which can go across any geographical boundaries and all the bright Minds from around the world can be working on the same project even from their respective places which is something that has been a big reason for a lot of innovation which can be done and was something impossible in the past.

Apart from the technology is also used to be giving the repetitive task and the low effort activities which can consumer lot of time to technology itself which can get that job done without any human effort which is saving resources and also saving time to a very great extent which can let humans be developing much more in terms of innovation and creative thinking.

However, not everything is positive about the involvement of technology in our lives in the modern world, because all of this is raising our dependence on machines even more. After all, nowadays you would notice the fact that people are struggling to do even the basic activities, such as using artificial intelligence for even the smallest of things, which is not letting them learn any kind of skills within themselves physical laziness is also a very big aspect of technology which it we are Outsourcing most of our things and jobs to technology such as using any kind of navigation application to be going to a particular place without doing any kind of activity in terms of ordering food as well right to our home and a lot of other things such as social media that has made us addicted to it which is also not letting us interact with people in the physical way which we used to be doing.

Technology surely has both of its sides to offer to US and it actually lies upon us how we are utilising it because we can extract the positive out of it and try to retain our own best form from that but if we get indulge in IT way too much then we can definitely go out of the flow and just become even more lazy I just because of Technology itself which is something that we should be trying to avoid.

In the end it is going to be our decision how we are going to be engaging with technology and we should always remember the fact that we are the ones who can control technology and the moment we give it away to technology to control us it is that particular point of time when we are just becoming something that we should always try to stay away from and utilising it in our manner is something that should be our prime focus to be extracting the best out of it for our good.
