As a society we need to find a balance between our technological use and our everyday life. In my opinion, society has become too dependent on technology. The more advanced technology becomes, the more it seems to be gaining control over our lives. Even though <a href='/topics/technology' style='color:#3174a3'>technology</a> is offering society many beneficial qualities; it also is causing many negative effects to occur. Technology is affecting society socially, mentally, and physically. <br /> One point addressed throughout each article was how technology has affected society socially. Technology has contributed to society’s lack of social skills, social interaction, and has allowed many of us to<a data-href=/writing/document/F3CLBWZTJ class="document__middle white-space--normal source-serif text-l" rel="nofollow" style="cursor:pointer;white-space: normal;"> <i>…show more content…</i> </a></p></span><span class="document__preview text-l source-serif "><p class='text-ellipsis-after'>They no longer have to think for themselves, find solutions to problems, or even learn basic skills. Technology has become their solution to all of their problems. Technology has provided society with many tools to help make life easier. Writer and futurist, Bruce Sterling, references this point when he addresses the Leatherman Tool and the Apple <a href='/topics/i-phone' style='color:#3174a3'>iPhone</a>. Sterling addresses how the Apple iPhone has become a tool that has many different beneficial functions. Sterling says, “Like all digital technologies, the iPhone has yet to achieve [the physical qualities of the Leatherman but,] it makes up for this with its cannibal appetite for other tools.” He also stated, “iPhones devour other tools, which digests them into virtualized application services: phone, camera, e-mail, Web browser, text-messaging, music and video players, whole planet-girdling sets of urban Google maps, house keys, pedometer, TV remote, seismometer, Breathalyzer, alarm clock, video games, radio, bar-code scanner … the target list grows by the day” (Sterling). These tools are the main reasons our society has lost the need and desire for critical thinkers. These tools have also had many other profound effects on our society. These different technological tools have also contributed to the forming of an illiterate society.

The solutions that scientists create spark a tool that others cannot live without. But what if these technologies bring out negative effects rather than their desired purpose? Sometimes, innovators create new inventions that bring unintended consequences.

When looked at briefly, Sullivan and Akbari’s views seem to be like the opposite sides of the same coin. Sullivan argues from a more personal standpoint that personal technology shuts us out from the world.

Violent addictive video games have made their way into American homes. Parents encourage their children to not text as much, but them to face the problem of constant communication.

There is no doubt that some new technology has been created to help operate or effectively manage time in a way that would be beneficial to humans. Technology significantly helps a number of people. A group that greatly benefits with the advances of technology is teenagers. Teens constantly use computers for schoolwork, networking, or knowing anything they want to know with a simple use of their fingertips. Furthermore, with the advances it is no longer needed to leave the household to run an errand such as going out to pay a bill or do some shopping. As technology advances and enters the life of mostly all humans many begin to question how healthy these technological advances truly are. A couple of decades ago kids spent their time outside playing with their friends by the same token with items that did not require the use of electricity. Kids and adolescents would dedicate at least a part of their day to reading books and gaining knowledge from there instead of social media. Distinctively today’s adolescents instead of reading books will go on the internet for a summary and inform themselves in less than 5 minutes, spent their time inside playing video games or on their cellphones allowing technology to be the only thing they know and rely on to have fun or be informed. Moreover, this guides us to the points Ray Bradbury makes in his novel Fahrenheit 451.
