Technology and Humans....

Technology develops the humans or humans develop the technology? Let us make it more simple who is the firstborn, obviously, man landed on the earth after the Big Bang but life does exist before the Big Bang and we were having no born brains to perceive this life although it was there. What I am writing here is purely my own thinking and everyone has the right to disagree with it. I am not imposing but imparting what I feel and what I think.

The man was placed much later, on the planet after the Big Bang with a raw brain or you can say an unused brain with all its simplicity, unable to handle the complex matters which never existed in his earliest life on the planet. Life started progressing and the brain started chasing it, why I am saying so because we have two types of life on this planet. The life with brains and the life without brains and to this we can add a third category and that is lifelessness. Now the chasing brain got confused because it wanted to opt for either an intelligent life or to go after a lifestyle driven by an instinct and the brain was unable to chase them both simultaneously, so it decided to let go of the instinctively driven lifestyle and adopted intelligent life since then onward.

The intelligent life got developed into a human and the instinct-driven lifestyle gave birth to the world of animals, insects, and the natural growth of flora and fauna on this planet. The life that existed before the Big Bang does not belong to humans and we postpone that for some other time. Since then humans only have the option to choose and no one else neither the animals nor the insects can opt to choose. This leverage is only available with the humans even the angles cannot go for it. Humans are lucky enough to enjoy choice management and all the credit goes to the brain who chose to partner with humans since life is all about choices. The choice to control, the choice to rule over others, the choice to capture, the choice to lead, the choice to reach out to outer worlds, the choice to create, to generate, to discover, to invent, good or bad, vice or virtue, human or inhuman and the visions you can visualize negative or positive.     

With so many available choices, he immediately realized that his life is going to be a home of complex issues and tedious matters sooner or later and he would be very soon requiring a helping hand, this need for a helping hand pushed his brain to evolve such a system of plans based upon technical data and information which could help him in achieving his desired choices efficiently.

Industrial Revolution marked the beginning of the technical era and with that, it started a rapid development in the field of technology. This transition phase covered a time span of 1760 to 1840 converting hand production methods to machines, introducing chemical manufacturing processes, increase in the use of water and steam power, the inventing machine tools that completely reformed mechanized factory processes.

Initially, humans had to put in extraordinary efforts to provide for a solid and comprehensive foundation for the expected technical infrastructure and to develop such a conducive working environment where they can achieve their most cherished choices in an efficient manner for themselves and their generations next. This approach set in new developing diversifications and broadening their vision to achieve more refinement and sophistication in the field of technological advancement. This will bring in more value in terms of employment, output value, and capital invested. This was the beginning of Hitech digital and internet technology aided by supercomputers, microchips, nanochips, and cellular gadgets and components. This is the point where technology has started to develop humans, has started to facilitate humans, has started helping humans to achieve their choices, robots have replaced humans, and yet there is no stopping to the technological progress yet to reach new horizons of Artificial Intelligence commonly knows as AI.
