Technology is changing and advancing at a rapid pace. Ray Kurzweil thinks that this is a good thing. It can cure disease, prevent aging, and invent new things that can advance the way we live. Kurzweil has a good point about how technology can be a huge benefit, however it can be just as dangerous. Kurzweil is anticipating where this technological age will lead humans. He has theories of how computers will not be machines, they will be embedded in our brains. He believes that we will have millions of nanobots that can communicate with us. On the other hand, Bill Joy thinks that advances in technology will be a potential danger. He believes that if we continue with this technology then humans will be out of jobs and the machines will take over.
We have been advancing in technology rapidly in the last fifty years. Most inventions and advances have been good, however they also are killing the environment we live in. Hopefully technology will advance safely and it does not suffocate humans as well as our habitat. Technology is an amazing thing and it is great to be able to live in an age where new things are being invented everyday to boost our lifestyles. It could very well be dangerous or can help.
