Question

Do you think Huxley’s warning that humans can be enslaved by technology (i.e. science) is warranted? Explain

Answer 1

Yes, I think that Huxley’s warning that humans can be enslaved by technology is warranted. Technology is both liberating and ensalving us.

Our day to day rapidly increasing desire to depend upon the technology is affecting our power of choice. Technology is disruptive. New discoveries come with the unexpected consequences. Social media is making people nowadays, which even lead to the depression. But, these consequences cannot be avoided. Teenagers can't even spend a single day without using their phone or laptop. They are completely depend upon it even for the school or college homework, that affected their creativity. But on the other hand, technology has completely changed the universe since decades. This changes could not be possible without technology. Internet is one of the best creation of technology. It keeps the world together socially, but it aparts people in reality. So, Technology is a two sided sword that is, liberating and enslaving.
