People’s reliance on technology is one aspect of the future that I do not look forward to. Even at the moment we look around almost any public place and someone is on their phone or laptop. Society has began to love technology so much that it is taking away from our own abilities as humans. One example is communication with others; instead of meeting up with a person to hang out or do something outside, some people choose to just talk via an internet medium such as facebook or skype. This has made us lose a sense of interaction with our fellow human.
Another loss of interaction with others is seen when people are out. People sitting with a bunch of people while in a social setting, but instead of interacting are buried in their phones looking at facebook or something. I personally think that this kind of behaviour should be banned in places like clubs and pubs, with a penalty of being thrown out for the worst offenders lol!
The Disney movie Wall – E sums up exactly how humans could end up if this obsession with technology to make our lives easier takes over completely.
