Technology

In this day and age, technology has become the most important factor in human life. However, using technology can be harmful to the environment. Many technologies consume a lot of resources because the way we manufacture them can create pollution, especially air pollution.

 I never heard of this before, but I had searched from the internet. In my understanding, Cambridge Analytica is a company that formed in England, and the target of this company is helping politicians to win the election. This company held millions of Facebook users’ private information, and they can use this information to increase the number of voters. Moreover, in 2016 the election in the USA, Donald Trump hired this company to help him win the election against Clinton, and he had achieved his goal to become a president in the USA.

In my perspective, I do not think that technology has created a gap between family and friends; instead, it helps us to stay in touch with them. 

Participate in a digital detox seems to be very interesting for me. Every day, I have to pick up the phone and text my friends about group work, and also social media make me unable to resist to play them. At least, I want to become free from technology for some days; I want to feel nature, such as forest, beach, and mountain, to clear my mind with my family or friend. Also, doing some activities that do not involve technology, such as hiking, travel, sports, and so on. 

In my opinion, technology contains both benefits and drawbacks to students. In a good way, it helps students to find some research information faster and easier, and it also provides conveniences, for instance, google doc allows people to work together in different places, and also applications help them to communicate together as well. In contrast, technology will cause smartphone addiction to students, and it will distract them from learning and developing.

I agree with what Alan M.Eddison said because modern technology causes a huge change in the economy. In my view, it turns everything from real to fake. Nowadays, some companies replacing human by robots or AI (artificial intelligence) which lead to many unemployed in some areas of the job. Indeed, AI creates some impacts on this generation students since some of the subjects that students had learned are useless, and it does not relate to the new future jobs. In addition, technology can allow scientists to change the genetic in animals, for example, cross-breeding is very unnatural; they combine the DNA from one animal to another and create a new creature. Besides, some researches claim that we can use pig hearts to replace the human heart.
