The 20th centu
ary
has been was a year one/a century [no need to repeat "century" here, IMO] of information explosion.
Although humans have always shown an increased intellect and communication capabilities in the past several centuries, it
is was in the previous century that several scientific a
nd technological advancement
s were achieved. These advancements and innovations ha
ve given a very stern platform for the people of
the 21st century to advance further.
Like never before
[no space], people are so dependent on machines. Technology has become an inseperable
thing item for everyone. The advancement of computers and internet has transformed the lives of people. The mobile communications and internet can be said
as to be the prime drivers of this century. Many are of the view that ease of use
and faster information exchange are main
advantage factors that attract them towards
[new] technologies. They also claim that the accuracy of information is very high compared to last generation
's manual techniques. This makes technology less error prone, highly accurate and more dependable.The economic experts say that
the higher the use of technology
becomes,
the higher the efficiency of the people and better the economic outlook of a country. Some governments and multinational companies actively encourage the use of technologies. After
[space]all
, everyone wants to be smart.
Some governments are actively putting technologies in use
[no space], others are very reluctant about increased use of these. Many experts argue to that this expo
nential
increase in usage of technologies can spell a catastrophy.
These experts have researched and gathered several factual statistics on the usage of technologies and how
it is they are replacing many
workforces workers. In their research, the most prominent discussion was on increased unemployment due to technology. Many painters, security g
uards, bank
staffsclerks, have lost their jobs due to this. Those
workforces jobs have been replaced by digital printings
[no space], security cameras, online transaction
s. Such statistics are alarming and require
s a fire
-fighting mode of rescue
[I don't know exactly what this means].
In summ
ary, though the technical innovation and advancements ha
ve enhanced most of our lives, it is the utmost responsibility of the government to control the
ir usage.
