  Relationship with Technology Throughout my life technology has always been around. It's crazy to think in my life span that technology has always been there, talking with my parents about technology they always talk about the things they would have to do because the technology wasn't as advanced as it is now. But now technology is so advanced that living life itself is so different that everything we interact with technology is there. This means that everyday life is always interacting with technology. Is my everyday life relationship with technology healthy or unhealthy? I would say my relationship is right in the middle. Somedays I use technology very minimally and some days I use it a lot. But the biggest negative I have in the relationship is a distraction.

Seeing the exponential growth of technology in our lives is an extraordinary experience. Seeing the growth can make you think about the pros and cons and why maybe we would want to slow down a little on the growth of technology. I believe one of the biggest pros would be efficiency. Meaning that everything we do will become quicker and more reliable with the help of AI. Things that would take hours can now be done in seconds and take little to no effort. This means though that people will become lazier and rely more on technology. The cons are more extensive for sure. Like people losing their job because a computer can do what they can do in less time and be way more cost-efficient. also, the risk of these AI invading privacy to gather more information about yourself for future references on what you like. The craziness with AI will only grow and be more and more int
