Technology use in the work industry can develop the effectiveness. Technology can replace humans sometimes, it has a code and can think faster. As an example, they can do an action which is coded, faster than a human, they find the problem and fix it faster than the human. For example -Autocorrection.

Data storing. Computers can store data, they take up less space (data is inside a tiny flash). When a human stores data, he needs space and a lot of time to find the right document. Computers work more efficiently, they store information- this takes up less space, they are multifunctional. An example would be a hospital, the person may need urgent help the doctor can find his medical history and provide urgent help.

Research - the computer can provide you with more information than books, to find information in a book, you need to find the right book, then the right topic in thesaurus. The computer provides a larger amount of information than a book, the research is also faster. Computers take less space to store up information. The computer also provides information for any age category, a book uses more difficult language, when at the internet you can find any information for any age range.

You can get an answer to any question for any age range.

Communication - technology makes it easier for people to socialize and to communicate. Before people used letters, it was a whole process to send, and it took ages to receive. With the internet and apps you can socialize easier and faster. You can also find people to talk to, fill out the topics that interest you and the app finds a person who is interested as well. Distance will not be a problem anymore.

I agree that technologies improved life and it has many positive things about it but on the other hand, there are some technologies that actually aren't great and simply destroying everyday life.

First, I don't like the effect of social media. It is actually comparing your life to another person's life, so that may lead to depression. Also, social media have a great impact on the sleep cycle because of notifications that actually distract you while sleeping or just sitting online all night chatting with your friends. And the funniest thing is likes they are like a drugs in over days when we get them we are happy when we don't, we feel bad. It actually affects dopamine receptors and every time you need more likes.

Second this thing actually worse than social media. Porn is the most popular industry that uses a lot of new technologies but it actually bad for the brain. Porn just shows the user lie.The most of the people who were filmed in these films told, that actors are usually on drugs and they have to fake a lot and use a lot of editing to get read of blood or some awkward situations. Pornography objectifies women and viewers think that it is actually true and men treat their partners as objects in real life.

Because of dopamine, every time viewers need more and more and in the end, they can kidnap and rape a random woman. The user usually compare himself with the actor and it may lead to depression and some people just kill themself because of it. But the wors effect is on the children because they don't know if it is a lie and they grow up objectifying the women.

The last one for today is nuclear bombs this is actually scary and can destroy the whole humanity and the Earth. In my opinion, this thing really needs to be contained and only used to save the world from global threats. For social media, I would recommend changing theyre programs a little bit. And for the porn, I would recommend just tell all of the negative effects of porn on theyre main website.

If you have any questions just ask and I may answer them
