Effects of technology on society

Over the years there have been many improvements in technology. These
improvements have changed the lifestyle of the human being, causing effects,
some positive, some negative, which will be mentioned in this essay.

Technology has improved our quality of life, since with its development many jobs
have been generated. On the other hand, it has also improved education, since it
allows access to many sources of information whenever necessary, also allows
distance learning through digital platforms, this was more evident during the
pandemic. Technology has allowed advances in health and wellness, in this way
new ways to treat different diseases have been achieved, as was the case of the
vaccine for COVID-19, and thus allow better health management. Thanks to
technology, several machines have been created that allow us to produce in a
more efficient way, which improves our performance in the work we do, as well as
devices that allow us to communicate with anyone no matter where we are.

However, technology has also caused negative effects on society. For example,
technology can make us insensitive to our surroundings, because of this we lose
friendships, and we can even have problems with our relatives. In addition, it can
cause a decrease in our relationships and social skills, since many people prefer to
converse through a social network, which means that when they have to meet
someone face to face, they do not know how to do it, or they will simply become a
shy person. or introvert. Finally, one of the most important negative effects that
technology can cause is that it stimulates health problems. Among them are
dependency, because there are people who feel that technology is part of their
lives, and when they are not with it, it generates anxiety, and in other cases,
withdrawal syndrome, and in turn causes addiction problems.

As we have seen, technology has had positive and negative effects on society,
however, without its development our lifestyle would not be as it is now.
