Some people think so, and yearn for an earlier time, with horse-drawn carriages and no indoor Plumbing... I'm not one of them though. I think that technology makes our lives better more than it makes our lives worse. Just the single change of being able to easily communicate with people all over the world has made us better. Education reaches more people. The average person has access to SO much more information... and yeah, it is a mish-MASH, but that is why we have search engines and sites that try to answer specific questions.
If you look at Science Fiction, which is largely based on people's technological views of the future, you find that people take sides... will technology eventually destroy us, or will it eventually save us? ... Or, will it have very little to do with saving us or destroying us, because it is the nature of man that is our problem AND our salvation. ... It's an excellent question, but there aren't easy answers. Personally, I think that technologies (like the wheel, like the Gutenberg press, like gigantic farm machines that can do the work of hundreds...) continue to help us every day. ... And yeah, they can be used for evil. But they can also be used for good. :) It is up to each of us, individually, to make the good choices... and thus solve our problems as a society, instead of blaming them of anyone or anything else.
Quality of Life vs Nature's Norm
Most technology (even a "green" wind turbine) requires changes to the environment that can be harmful to nature. It can also affect the quality of life for humans : less green space, polluted air and water, and so forth. However, living "in harmony" with nature would mean a very limited human population, primitive transportation, few modern amentities, increased susceptibility to natural disasters, and even a shorter lifespan because of limited medical advances. Technology, or "civilization", has many benefits for human existence.

Which is more effective science or technology?
Science and technology work best together—science explains how things work, while technology applies that knowledge to solve problems. Neither is more effective alone; their impact depends on the goal.
How does networking improve the usefulness of computers?
Supporters of technology say that it solves problems and makes life better. Opponents argue that technology creates new problems that may threaten or damage the quality of life. There are several viewpoints on the implications of technological change and advancement and such schools of thought which considerably vary have their respective validity. Technological change has its advantages and disadvantages. For one, it is true that it partly solves problems and makes life better. At the same time, technological changes may likely create new problems thereby threatening or damaging quality of life. In the developing economies, for instance, technological advantages have both its merits and demerits. The introduction and seeming acceptability and usefulness of computers have somehow helped increase the efficiency of several firms. It is not only in the industrial sector that technological change proven to be very effective. In the agricultural sector, for example, the introduction of new technologies in increasing production has been very effective in expanding agricultural produce. These are just a few examples to illustrate the advantages of technological advancement. On the other hand, countries should be more careful on their choice of technology since it must be noted that while certain types of technology are adaptable to developed economies the same type of technology may not fit the environment of developing countries due to differing economic, social, cultural, and political factors. For example, infrastructure improvements such as a construction of irrigation dam in the mountain of the Philippines where several natives reside may likely be resisted by the population due to cultural factors. They may prefer not to have such improvements in view of traditional values. Another example is the pollution impact of some technological improvements particularly in the industrial sectors. The choice and adaptability of new technology should therefore be carefully studied. The short, medium, and long term impact of such technology is very important particularly for developing economies. The benefits should always be greater than the costs. I am inclined to support both positions because both views have their own validity. However, I am more convinced that technological advancement is really beneficial to countries so long as they are aware of the disadvantages of such technology. In my own points of view, I support technology can solve problems and makes life better. Computer helps human solves thousands of problems, especially, science. A lot of calculation was so complex. It is impossible count them from normal method. It should use a very fast computer in order to compute it. Super conductor, one of the hot technology topic. A lot of scientists study this kind of stuff. It is a very important stuff. That is wonderful. We can easily solve the big problem, "energy". It can pass through the energy without losing. Finally, I support technology. Because it is more benefit.

What is the difference between old technology and new technology?
Old technology is past technology that is not special, like older types of television or older types of computers. New technology is more valuable and most people do not have it, like newer types of televisions and computers.
Does technolgy create more problems than it solves?
The net effect of technology is probably good since humans live longer and in greater health than ever before; however, technology does bring new problems with it.
Does technology create more problems than it solves and may threaten the quality of life?
It may, it may not Depends how you look at it. It may it may not It depends how you look at it
War solves more problems than it creates?
Violence is never the answer. BUT yes yes it does!
Can science and technology solve the unending human problems?
I seriously doubt that it could, because the more things we create, even though they may solve certain problems, they create more, thus creating a never ending chain of problems... However, that is just my view...
Why is it often necessary to build many prototypes?
each new prototype solves more problems
War solve the problems or not?
Attacking a foreign country without the support of its inhabitants typically causes far more problems than it solves.
Does money cause more problems than it solves?
Quite often, especially if you don't know how to manage it or deal with taxes.But it does solve problems that poverty brings.
How does the advancement of technology ensure the safety of the Earth?
Technology is our most powerful tool. It enables the human race to do much more than we otherwise could. People can always choose to use technology well or badly, for good purposes or for bad purposes. Technology can be used to solve problems or it can be used to create problems. Indeed, one can argue that the worst problems which the human race presently faces, were created by technology. Perhaps those problems can also be solved by technology, but that remains to be seen. Technology, therefore, makes things possible but does not ensure anything.
Is hiding from your problems good?
No, hiding from your problems aren't good because they create more and more problems.
What do you need to do to safely lose weight?
The answer is very simple. Eat less, move more. Anything else is likely to lead to more problems than it solves.
What will happen if problems are not promptly solved?
Problems that are not promptly solved create more problems.
