What is technology ? They say too much of everything is harmful . In my opinion , the best example is technology ; the most beautiful thing in the world if you use it enough . However , if it is too much , it can cause a lot harm to you . Based on my research on the Internet , I can give examples such as perceiving information faster , losing our sense of place , primitive brain functions , being more nervous , making us selfish , weakening our reading capacity , distraction and slowing the development of brain activities . As I mentioned earlier , technology makes us selfish . We all know that in most games that are played , players want to kill virtual characters there . Virtual and reality are two of the closest concepts to each other because we can see everything in real life and we see more on the screens we hold in our hands . Most people confuse them a lot . We can understand them from their behaviour . It shows as violence , misbehaviour and anger . We can all guess what the end will be if children play these kinds of games when they grow up . We have talked enough about its harmful aspects , we should talk about its beneficial aspects now . If we time travel from the past to the present , we will see that humanity has come a long way . We should talk about communication here . In ancient times , people used smoke and birds for communication . Human ’ s curiosity continued and the gadgets evolved into technical devices . Today , thanks to the Internet , we can communicate via e-mail , talk to people on the other side of the world , and learn things we never knew before .
In conclusion , we can say that technology has good and bad sides . The important thing is how much is enough for us .
