Clearly write a text about this topic: “How technology has changed human life”, for that,

you must do the following:

To begin with, technology is the technical knowledge that allows us to design and create

goods and services that facilitate adaptation to the environment and meet both the

needs and desires of people. Because science has brought new knowledge that is

used by technology in order to achieve specific goals or solve problems for society.

Science and technology it will have had new ethical and security risks when scientific

knowledge is used against human survival or privacy is eliminated, resulting in a

reduction in social cohesion.

This transformation has saved social life, as an example we see changes in the way

people communicate, also in companies, on digital platforms, different media pointing

out that today it is easy to find people through the web in real life or face to face.

Currently technology is of great importance around the world because its progress will

have made the whole society favor it, since we are in the daily stage a different advance

arises that contributes to the growth of this.

This technological revolution will have caused a completely disruptive change in

economies, as well as in the performance and habits of the economic agents

themselves that make up the global economy. Digitalization will have taken over

companies, completely transforming their stigmas and processes and adapting them to

the new digital environment.

In short, if we think that technology is the key to the continuous renewal of our

way of life. Thanks to this, you will have understood the level never imagined and
through this we continue to advance. Without these technological advances our life

would not be complicated.

Due to the COVID 19 pandemic, remote work became a necessity in 2020 and 2021.

However, this trend is not transitory. If we find a way to work like this, it will become

the new normal, and having a technology that allows remote access and support will be

essential.

Specifically, we will have to move a little away from technology and stick to real life

and not to what is behind the screen. That is to say that every time people are

becoming useless, and this is the harsh reality that we will never accept.

Answer to question according to activity guide

¿What would happen to humanity if technology did not exist?

Technology is a response to the human capacity to adapt to the environment, survive

and develop. Technology exists from the moment the human brain took a stone and

gave it a certain purpose.

There is no doubt that living without technology has its advantages and disadvantages.

For example, if there were no technological means, surely, we would spend more time

doing other activities such as exercise, reading a book, walking through the park, talking

with friends, and family without any distraction.
