What Happens When We Rely Too Much On Technology

from Future Ready Leadership With Jacob Morgan

Technology is cool and it helps us in daily life. But one thing that is cause for concern is that we tend to over rely on technology. We have this scenario in our heads that in the future we will all have robots that will do things for us at home and at work and that software will do the jobs we don't like to do. We think of all the advancements that are happening in the technology space and what is yet to come and we get this grandiose vision in our minds. The fact is technology has a lot of issues including the possibility of being hacked and the challenge of glitches and errors that are bound to happen. I fear that we are over relying on technology thinking that in the future we won't have to do anything for ourselves. The question is, will our over reliance on technology come back to bite us in the future? If we rely solely on technology for things like automating farming or operating autonomous cars, what happens when the technology breaks down or it gets hacked? If we put too much reliance on technology alone I worry that it will make us less human or distort our reality. We don't take things at face value anymore, we are moving away from making judgements and decisions on our own by using our senses and thoughts. Instead we are looking at the world through the eyes of data and algorithms and basing our decisions on what technology tells us. If we continue this way, will the humanity aspect disappear altogether?
