Technology makes life more complicated than necessary. Would you agree?

Question

how does it do so, and how does it not? thank you.

Answer 1

I totally disagree. I love technology. In fact I'm typing and listening to my ipod and watching tv! I LOVE IT!!!!!!! Where would we be without it? Don't get me wrong...  I'm not stupid. But I just get bored easily.  

Answer 2

Technology can make life complicated only as we allow it.  I can use an ordinary can opener,  or use an electric can opener.  Each item has different efficiency,  different "price" for usage. The same principle applies to any technology item.  We must decide whether the advantages offsets the "price."  

Answer 3

I notice that the very young(10-15yrs) are rather obsessed with many modern gadgets and comparing their possessions with their school mates and friends, to the point of neglecting their studies. They are very knowledgeable about computer games and the technical operations of gadgets, but they fare poorly during exams! So this situation puts a lot of pressure on parents and teachers and is now getting to be a big problem among the young.

For older teens, lots of money also goes into spending accessories and gadgets to enhance looks or power of  motorbikes and cars, resulting in reduced personal savings and more likelihood of injuries and tragedies in private or professional races. More worries and pain for the parents.

However for working  adults, all technological knowledge and electronic gadgets are an advantage for becoming a more efficient worker. One cannot survive well without computer skills in an era of information technology. This is because of competition and things move fast. Technology and life has indeed become more complicated and the new generation has no choice but to adapt to new trends.

Answer 4

It can, but only if you allow it to.

Answer 5

Much of technology can help make our life's easier.

Computers & the internet makes information & knowledge available to all.

Technology has made the world a smaller place.

What happens anywhere affects things else where.

Its coping with all of this additional knowledge that clutters our  brains making it more complicated.

We have to be increasingly aware of each of our actions has on others.

Answer 6

On the contrary the objective of the technology is to make our life easier. Technology is only complicate if we don't know how to use it to make our lives simpler.

As soon as we know how to use it, it becomes a part of our lives, in certain instances we can't live without it, ie phone, vehicles, internet, Microwave etc.

As the society progresses technology will  become even more advanced, and as we learn to decode technology it will become part of our lives. Making our lives even simpler.
