Is Human Being leading the technology or the other way round?

This is one of the PowerPoint presentation slides based on one of the assignment I had donein REG264 previously. The title of our topic is "Is human being leading the technology or the other way round?".My group name is ICT which stand for ‘I see technology). Our power point presentation is entitled ‘Is Human Leading the Technology or the other way round?’. As the world moves rapidly into the ‘technology-advanced’ 21st century, is the technology nowadays really brings us an easy life or it is actually ‘killing’ human and destroy the earth without any signals?? The main objective of our presentation today is to motivate people to think about the benefits brought by technology and so with the consequences/effects created by technology. What is technology and how many you do understand about technology? Technology is the scientific method and material used to achieve commercial or industrial objectives. It actually can be categorized into few types which are information technology, assistive technology, medical technology, technology productive tools, ant etc. Where are human kinds going from the earliest century to 21st-advanced century? Trough our presentation, you can realize that technology actually is leading people into a convenient and luxurious life. Human leading technology from century to century, technology improves human condition from hard to easy. It also has brought us prosperity and closer up the distance between human in globe. Technology brings us to uncertain future, just as the earlier century people, they could not predict their future can be changed to be like nowadays. However, not all the technology has been used peacefully. For instant, the development of nuclear weapons from clubs of ever-increasing destructive power had progressed throughout history. There is a lot of images shown in the presentation. Apart of them, it is about misuse of technology causing environmental pollution. For examples, thick smoke released by factories causes air pollution; contaminant in the water causes water pollution and all the aqua creatures dying away; thermal pollution, ozone pollution, thermal pollution and etc. the quality of people life will be affected. At the same time, it has long term implications threatening very existence of human life in major parts of the earth. In addition, technology also arouses many negative effects to human. Since the pollution is taking more serious, human health will be threaten badly and many diseases will be spread away. People will live under stress and finally will causing psycho mental problem. The rich people will remain rich whereas the bottom billion countries will remain the same. There are many more side effects causing by technology nowadays. So, is the technology improves the human condition or worsens it? Think about it!
