Technology was deliberately created to facilitate human work to the desired results. With the technology, every work that can not be done by humans can be done in the presence of technology.
Do u really think that technology is hurting us more than benefiting us 
?
?No. I still believe there are more good people than bad in the world. I also believe that the end result of the use of a technology corresponds with the type of person using it.
One plus one equals two.
We cant escape technology for example in some offices almost all companies use computers now because its fast, efficient and making people more productive. And some people can't live without it including me spending hours on mobile device and its a part of my daily life, but anobody has a choice to be unplugged.
Human life nowaday is placed by technology typical is smartphone. I'm afraid it will make people far from each other, shy to communicate, always hold a phone in hand and even when we eat. It's terrible 
You can meet with one or two friends, and with a smartphone you can in one day to talk with all friends. Is it bad? 
.Yeah you are absolutely right OP, as we can see people nowadays are too dependent on technology and have become lazy to do work, machines don't think like we do, we keep on destroying or killing the nature in order to build our dreamland but in the end when we already feel uncontented what would be next? Planet made by plastic or made steel?

Its true that technology has taken us to that point where we can even think of impossible but there are many counter-effects that human race is facing after this advancement in technology ...... wars , global warming , terrorism , time for family etc ........ Do u really think that technology is hurting us more than benefiting us ?
?You've stated some "counter effects"that we, human race are facing after this advancement technology like wars or global warmi g, and then you said in the end that do we really think that the technology is hurting us than benefiting us, which make sense, but what might happen is also our fault, we also want to make our lives and work easy and efficient, that is why we make things that do something we usually do human so we will not bother do it anymore. Technology is really far.

?I think technology is obviously very beneficial for us. Communication technology, Transport technology and others. We are made easier to communicate with anyone and anywhere. We can go anywhere faster by sea or air lines. We can also share information throughout the world, Technology is very helpful to human life. But technology can also damage human life if we are wrong to use it. I think it all depends on how we use technology.

?As we divulged ourselves in development we became focus on the issues on economy and we have treated our natural resources as a tool to increase profit without considering the after effects of our actions. Humanity have made their lives very comfortable but with a price. I do think that technology is now hurting us more than benefiting us. But we can still save our planet by the use of technology all we need is discipline.
War was always been there since then before technology takes place so its not a proper discussion. Time of your family may be affected yes that is quite acceptable, yet in the end it is still on you on how are you going to use technology i have seen a family who does things together
Edit: global warming was caused by dirty sorroundings causing polution is actually done by humans not by technology

?The capitalistic model wants to maximize profits and the ideal situation for a company is to get all the profits without any workers at all. As the technological capabilities increase, those who cannot get skills that a machine cannot do will lose their job. Ultimately, this is a self-fulfilling prophecy. It's only a matter of time before the technology is there to replace your job. If your job is complicated, you may have several decades until your retirement. There are some exceptions to this rule, like politicians, hookers, dentists, but I think 99% of the people do not fall within that range. On the long term capitalism cannot sustain itself because there are no longer people with money to buy the goods and services.
Advances in robotics will produce an even greater effect on work than the industrial revolution. On the other hand life expectancy is greater, we live longer and we are more people on the planet. With more population and less work, the work that remains will be more precarious, with lower wages and worse conditions. Because of this in countries like Finland have been approved the Universal Basic Income and others such as Netherlands and Switzerland are studying.
Apart from this, technological advances make life easier for us even though Hollywood is obsessed with making us hate technology or scientific progress.

All depends on us this technology?Indeed if we make bad it will be bad
But if we think well then technology becomes good.
Technology is a gift from God that helps people live.
Thousands of years ago, people were a lot stronger. Look at the pyramids of Egypt... the gigantic blocks of stone that those people had to move without modern technology. Could we do it without modern technology today? People simply aren't as strong now as they were back then.
God has given us technology to help us with out weaknesses. Of course, some people use it for bad things - like war. But it helps many others in their weakness.
Traveling 100 miles before there were cars could tae a day, easily. Now it takes little more than an hour, with a car.

you are totally right.. modern people are too weak to handle some physically demanding works . on the other hand, modern people are more clever than their ancestors. For that reasons , they have been creating technological stuffs which make their life easier.. that is the point which make technology irreplaceable.
It is on the middle. It benefits us like giving us more time and preserving our energy with technology that makes our life more easy and comfortable. It gives us almost all comfortable thing we could imagine. Though with all these advancements, we tend to be abusive and as a result we have sudden change in environment. We polluted the air, bodies of water, and the land. Due to advancement we also makes it easy for us to kill people. Because of high technology, people have invented nuclear weapon, guns, bombs and the like. It is okay to be modern but what we over use it, we abuse it.
Yeah there is disadvantages and advantages but technology gives advantages because all our work make it easy. like cellphone before we only have a pager like this 
Now we have now cellphone that we can talk or call in far places.

Technology is great, but today I saw a vinyl record cover, which were before my time, and I thought, it must have felt awesome going to the store and buying one of those and enjoying it, vs having an unlimited supply of music and jumping from song to song.
I can confirm, that's something that used to be absolutely awesome
it doesn't even compare to today's deluge of everything, accessible through a few clicks from your house. I've never actually bought any vinyl records, I'm talking about buying Mega Drive games in the early nineties as a kid. I would go to the store with my parents and I would be standing there for ages deciding on the game to pick for my birthday. These days, I still enjoy gaming a lot and I can get any game I want almost instantly but the thrill and fun of getting the game is completely gone 
haha same problem here
altho, I was lucky that my parents were buying vinyl before so I have a few really,really good heavy metal albums. But yes, I remember buying catridges a long ass time ago and later on, ps1 games, and can you imagine the happines when my father came home with 150 ps1 games in a box. Good times, good times... Now I don't even play games on pc that much...

People were not a lot stronger, they simply had more slaves to work for them. If you have 10.000 or 100.000 slaves, I am certain you can make a big building without the use off modern technology.Thousands of years ago, people were a lot stronger.

If you decode the scriptures you can read they had different types of slaves with a variety of social status. The writing is enough proof for me. If you take a look at the corpse of a mummy, you will see that there is nothing particularly unusual about it. They look almost identical to modern humans except a lot smaller.
So, you see? Man did it to themselves through the little bit of freedom that they have... way deep down inside themselves... the freedom to ask God, even they don't understand that this is what they are doing. But because man is not strong enough, God did it by giving mankind what they asked for. It works this way all the time.
I find your argument very confusing. I don't think God bothers with minuscule details of the universe such as an individual human life. If you have an aquarium of 20x20x20 meters, would you focus only on the life of one fish?Technology is a gift from God that helps people live.

This doesn't make sense. If you are the most powerful God, why to create individual with weakness only to give tools to improve their situation? Humans created the technology, not god. Did god make the Apple iPhone and Automobile too? In my opinion God only created the humans.Of course it doesn't make sense to someone who doesn't understand that God gave man freedom, and mankind used his freedom to become weak. So, it wasn't God's doing.
Like man's weakness, God took a look at mans freedom to ask for things, and implanted cause and effect in the universe that would make man invent Apple iPhones and automobiles.
