Chapter 8

Understanding the personal and social consequences of technological


breakthroughs in the digital era, as well as discussing the progression of technology
from antiquity to the present, are the primary objectives of Chapter 8. The use of social
media in this manner also shown how it has influenced people's lives.
It has been explained that words are the fundamental unit of communication, and
that communication, which is essential for the information society, is made up of these
words. It also included a discussion of language. Technology that deals with human
language is known as language in technology. Language in technology refers to
information technologies that are specialized for dealing with the most complex
information medium on the planet: human language. As a result, these technologies are
sometimes grouped together under the umbrella title Human Language Technology.
Human language can be expressed both verbally and in writing.
Science emerges from the ability to reason and conceptualize nature and its
principles. Western intellectuals have always harnessed nature's forces after better
understanding them. The first wind-powered sailing craft gets lost in time. Similarly, the
discovery that fire possesses its own strength and energy was never documented. As it
is written in the chapter 8. With increasing prominence in the twentieth century, the
world wide web grew in size and importance. The World Wide Web opened up the
internet to everyone, not only scientists, with the creation of the World Wide Web. It
brought the world closer together in a way that made it much easier for individuals to
obtain information, share information, and communicate with one another. Since then,
technology has enabled people to share their work and thoughts through social
networking sites, blogs, video sharing, and other means of communication. The fact that
it was able to gain access to people made it easier for many people to live their lives.
