Does the technology make us more alone?
Technology is the architect of our intimacies. It, substitutes and makes of the impossible a reality. IT’s first idea was to build, an avatar, a family, a house, to help people socialize and finally, “a place to love your body, love your friends, and love your life” - communication from the ACM, 1966). So, Technology can be found everywhere; it is present in people’s life. It is an instrument to work, to play, to communicate. When the technology begins to be implemented on peoples’ life, their purpose was to make the computer or other devices busy, but today, those inventions make people busy. Moreover, its use has been increased tremendously, bringing a seductive offer to meets our human vulnerabilities. Somehow it has its advantages and disadvantages on the society. Besides, some people affirm that it makes one more alone. However, some people disagree with this affirmation because they believe that technology is a wonderful innovation and helps the people to communicate and be united.
The promise of technology of giving more control over human relationship is in reality, a control over people emotion without a truth relationship. The technology is cutting people off from their own family, friends, from the world. When a gathering, as example, takes place, it is not more a gathering. Each one has their own mobile phone, and they put their whole attention on it. So, the communication among the people present on the same place is inexistent. So it blocks the communication from others and less face-to face communication being shown almost without feeling or emotion. As a further disadvantage, the seduction of the technology makes people addicted to it, thus, caused lack of attention in school, higher levels of accidents on the roads, etc. On the whole it makes the communication skills decrease and makes one more alone.
The facility offered by technology, is incredibly incredible. People around the world can dialogue, chat, and be in contact with each other. The distance isn’t anymore a problem. As example, people who live abroad, they can be communicating with their relatives all the time. So, they’re still participating in the family daily life, and when they are really together they aren’t foreigners to their reality. Moreover, when the problems surge, they can be resolved fast and easily. People can also enlarge the circle of friendship and increase their knowledge.
As a matter of fact, technology brings enormous benefits to our planet. On the whole people can communicate without barriers. However it makes one feel ‘alone together’. I believe that the innovation on devises brings loneliness to the world. It takes out our freedom of enjoying the people presence, also it makes as addicted to it. All the things in the brain became virtual. Once one is addicted, the relationship looks like a disposable object, thus, makes one feel lonely. Even when someone has many friends and, all are at the same place, one is still feeling alone, because everyone is only focus on his/her mobile. Despite its benefits, technology makes us together but lonely.
