Some people think the modern technology is making people more sociable, while others think it is making them less sociable. Discuss both views and give your opinion
With cutting-edge invention in technology, especially in social media, according to some people, as a human being, we are more connected than ever while others argue that it is making people more anti-social. In my opinion, although technology has detrimental impact on real world social skills to a certain extent but the effectiveness of any tool lies in its users and the way they exploit it.
To begin with, technology has completely changed the face of communication and the way we connect to over loved ones. It definitely has turned the world in to a global village where establishing a connection is just a fingertip away. For example, popularity of family groups on WhatsApp is clear evidence that how much it has assisted in connecting to our relatives. In addition, platform, such as Facebook, enables user to create community groups of like-minder people who can share the ideas and take some concrete actions on real social issues. Thus, the role of science and technologies in connecting people from all over the world is crystal clear.
However, it has some downsides as well due to its excessive utilization. Many youths spend most of their time on social networking websites, which not only disconnect them from the real world but also make them more lethargic. For example, 70% of college graduates lacks social and communication skills when they apply for their first job. Moreover, due to obsession with virtual friends, rather than forming meaningful and healthy bonds with surrounding people, people believe in temporary and meaningless relationships. Consequently, we are dealing with increasing number of insensitive and intolerance individuals.
In Conclusion, technology is a double-edged sword. So it is up to people how much they should rely on it for socialization. If it is effectively utilized, it is a blessing else it just a curse for mankind.
Comments
Many people believe that
Many people believe that cutting-edge technology is helping people to socialize more than before however, a lot of people differ with this opinion as according to them its preventing people to socialize. In my opinion, modern technology has revolutionized the way people use to stay in touch. This essay will have a brief explanation on both the views.
Firstly, the introduction of social media is helping people to get and stay connected with their friends and family who live in other countries. Social media is by far the cheapest medium of getting connected with people living abroad. Moreover, it has become very easy to talk and be friends with random people which was not possible before. Now, a person can talk to anyone regardless of their demographic, gender etc. Gone are those days where socializing meant face to face interaction whereas, now he/she can talk to their friends anytime on social media.
On the other hand, with the introduction of so many mobile applications and social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram even if a person is physically present among a group of friends but his keen interest lies in checking the social media apps rather than chit-chatting with is pears or friends. Apparently, this not only isolates a person but also restricts him to mingle up and create a strong relationship within his community.
To conclude, every technology comes with its own pros and cons however, I believe that modern technology is definitely helping people to connect easily and also encourages to create a long term bond.
