Overusing of Technologies in the Future

“Overusing of technology in the future”


Ever since the Industrial revolution, technology has been changing at a fast pace, people are always wanting a better lifestyle therefore there is always something new arising so humans can cope with their physical environment. One of the most important breakthroughs for technology was the agricultural system. The agricultural system was the basis for the technology of the future. The agricultural system brought on the need for transportation, workers and even, battles over land. The need for transportation brought vehicles into the market. The need for employees brought mechanical robots into society. Battles over land brought on the need for sophisticated weapons. The agricultural system brought on a revolution. The invention of the television can bring media and other forms of entertainment into your house with video and audio combined.

Before, newspapers and radio were the only ways to bring media or entertainment into the house. Mass production and other job opportunities brought many people from the suburbs and farms into the city. We can now have forms of electricity directed into our houses for heating and light. Humans are more reliant on technology then ever before. All of these technological advances sound great; however, there is a negative effect to all this technology. Technology can serve to actually harm humans rather then help them.

Competition between companies or even cities can sometimes make lives for humans even worse. Take for example when a city builds better and more roads to attract tourists.. Technology also changes our sense of common purpose. New inventions such as the personal computer and machines can change our lifestyles. Even things we take for granted such as the automobile have negative effects on technology. All of these examples show how technology has negative effects on society.

Yes, competition can lead to a negative effect of technology. Many inventors compete because for them they were all good in that aspect. But they didn’t know the effect of what they are doing. All they want is to endorse to the society if what is their latest invention. It is also the cause of the discontentment of the people.


Technology we take for granted such as the automobile can have a negative effect on society. The automobile must have been one of the greatest inventions. It allowed people to move out of highly congested cities and move into more peaceful neighborhoods. Yet it also let people feel as if they were still a short drive away from the city. However, the negative effects of the automobile were not thought of in those days. Now it is clear of what negative effects the automobile has on society.

Now we begin to realize the effects of these modern technologies. Automobiles are a good example of how technology can backfire on this world. Automobile exhausts are polluting the atmosphere so much that the next big technological advancement should be to find a way to heal the environment.

And it is clear that in the 7th revolution, our situation will become worse. And because of that effect, dissemination of information will surely affected. And it will back into basic. People will again experience the situation way back on the years with out the use of technologies.
