Often we heard that the technology has been changing at the unprecedented rate for some time and changes that would take place in centuries even in India are taking place in the decade. I would say it is rather not true humans since the Agrigrian society started living in the societal grouping started these changes and has these changes impacted humans in that case I do agree.

The invention of the wheels is one such example the humans have to shift the bulk load of food , grains , livestocks from one place to another in case of drought and famine or the transportation.

As we will see that human beings being most advanced , analytical beings are wired to think about the quick fixture of the problems they are facing and familiarize themselves with it.

Another example the coins were introduced in the market for exchange of goods and service the barter system was there so they exchanged goods and services. It created an error when one person in need of basic things like food would not be able to exchange their things when another is not needy for it.

Industrialization and Global politics

The late 1800’s and early 1900’s saw the thriving era of many industries , mills and corporations came into play. The typewriters were introduced to save time on paperwork and carry people through elevators through multiple floors.

A lot of people lost their jobs yet it was fast , effective and efficient way it saved time and money and hassle of dealing with people. Though humans are still important to run these machineries. Humans are also gregarious in nature so the printing press , telegrams and telephones also maintained their interconnectivity it became more popular during world wars.

During this period world power dynamics also remodeled when nuclear weapons came to play the scientist in colonized India also dreamt of owning these because the waking threat of powerful nations was worrisome.

It’s bizzare outcome was witnessed by many nations and the consequences were heart wreching to witness with brutality of humans towards another. It was important to possess these due to enlargement from enemy nations and security purposes. The rat never creates mouse traps but human created nuclear weapons.

The steam engines , airplanes and humans were reaching upto the moon without ending up in the sky. The early history till now we can see humans migrating from one place to another in search of jobs and livelihood.

Yet people did mock these technologies earlier they said airplanes looks like ‘ flying steel engines ‘ and the trains look like ‘ caged humans in steel boxes ‘ made to carry from one place to another. Yet later they got accustomed to these happenings in the world.

The Early 1900’s and the 2000’s

The later in the 1900’s and early 2000’s we can see humans making the ‘ nano ‘ form of technology they have themselves establish for occupying less space , convenient to carry from one place to another. They introduced computers and laptops instead of carrying calender , typewriters , alarms and calculators and many more things.

The mails were sent and it was far cheaper and easier to operate. The fast trains were running on track of faster world.The world was now a small place. The grama phones were replaced with the Compact Disk ( CD’s ) VCD’s and loud speakers. The Television was there with running programmes of variety for human entertainment and the point here was in this era everything boosted the economy of many countries and thus people started thinking more than just surviving but entertainment and fun.

Technology 2000 and 2020

The globe weave the net and termed it social network and this was the web now one could escaped. There are billions of people who use social media regardless gender and age groups. How this was a joke that market will reach the home and now we can see the human manifestations coming true. The online grocery stores , the shopping apps , food delivery apps and online cab services have changed the world. It is accessible and accelerated for humans to use.

The other aspects of technology

Not only these changes have an impeccable impact but these are fast forward in every area in the medicals cure of diseases which were widespread is found and incurable diseases are still on the research and progress have been made.

The human zoos are not far if we see the dangers of the Artificial intelligence but brilliance of human mind is commendable. The humanoids , Chat GP and bots can excel task easily by slowly learning functionality of the humans but there should be way to halt this. The humans are planning to settle on the Mars and yet they need to learn to diffuse such systems which can threaten and corrupt humanity.

The MetaVerse and the invasion of privacy and robots that can partially replace the sentimental feeling humans. We should be groomed so our neglection and lethargic nature can not scare the humanity. By that I do not mean that experiments , innovations and changes should not take places but we should learn last step of technology ‘ to diffuse ‘ when needed we can subsist together only when they are not harming human race by any means.

The virtual reality , the extended reality as well as voice assistants are few of the innovations that are extremely crafty and functional. We all are looking forward to this new normal but it is great rate it is advancing the point here no one can pinpoint one of them can change the human lifestyle all of them together will contribute the change.

The technology we are all looking forward is new energy saving resources and the methods we can use the electric cars , electric trains also the manufacturing of energy through natural means by wind , water and air and this is also mordernising on day basis so that we do not deplete non renewable resources of planet.

These are the changes through the history and till today that are impacting throughout till now and has changed the lifestyle of the humans. We need to look throughout history everything has impacted humans and none of one of these can contribute to change. All of them has changed human lifestyle and gave been changing.
