Technology is changing our lives.

Technology has changed our lives in so many ways over the past couple decades. The strides have been almost unbelievable. Even since I have been alive the dramatic change in technology has been dramatic. Technology has helped improved certain aspects of peoples lives and also made other parts harder or worse. It's a give take as far as what you get with technology. It's an interesting dynamic because with phones you can be able to communicate with almost anybody you want all across the world but at the same time a lot of people have lost the ability to communicate with other people in person.

Iphones have been out for less than twenty years. They have completely changed the way we operate in our everyday lives. To think that a lot of people are on their phones for four plus hours a day and that there was a time where we didn't have them at all shows you how they have changed our lives. With our phones alone we use them as alarms, GPS, communicating devices, entertaining devices, etc. The amount of things you can do with an Iphone is unbelievable. You can do so much with it. I use my phone everyday, I use it to communicate with my loved ones, to check on homework assignments or to do them, and also the ability to listen to music or watch youtube videos. To think that there is a time when you couldn't call somebody if you needed to get a hold of them would be such a weird and unsettling feeling. Iphone is a double edged sword though, you have people that have gotten so addicted to their phones that they don't even know how to communicate with their loved ones. They know how to text but they don't know how to talk to someone in person which is a huge deal and could help you and other in life tremendously.

I think another invention of technology that has changed the world is cars, cars have changed the way we live in so many ways. You can essentialy go anywhere you want now if its on land and if you have a car. Before hand you had to go on dangerous trails to cover any real ground.

Technology has changed everybodies life in some way. Be careful with how you use it. It can be helpful and hurtful. Technology is a double edged sword.

Hey there! You have mentioned interesting topics regarding our lives with technology, but the lack of reliable sources may affect the vision for the rest of us. Having sources that back-up your claims, or research data, is essential when building an argument. There are countless of articles around the web regarding technology, culture, and of course the science behind it. I think you could mention how social media has impacted our way of living, even today I find it surprising to see that now jobs check your Facebook and X posts before hiring you.
