Labour-saving devices such as dishwashers and communication tools such as computers are supposed to make our lives easier. However, some people argue that these devices only make them more difficult. Does modern technology reduce or increase stress?

Automation and digitalisation are the latest wonders of the world, making life simpler and stress free.

However

, there are some who believe that

such

advancements have resulted in loss of jobs and are more complex to use.

This

essay will discuss how modern

technology

is a boon to mankind and helps in saving

time

and money.

To begin

with, labour intensive jobs like loading and unloading of goods from ships and planes is

time

consuming and it requires many people to do it. But, with the help of automation and robotics in

this

industry, it is now easier and saves

time

and money both for the employer.

For instance

, Ships at the docks are unloaded in a few hours with the help of the weight lifters and robots, unlike earlier times when it used to take days to unload it. Modern

technology

and invention are inevitable and the need of the hour to optimize the cost and save

time

.

However

, some might argue that a

lot

of

time

is wasted on the latest communication platforms like Whatsapp, Facebook, and the internet as a whole.

Such

wasted

time

could be utilized in a productive manner, but thanks to

such

gadgets we are glued to the couch, and don’t have

time

to have qualitative interactions and face to face meetings with our loved ones. A

lot

of labour saving devices are more complex to use and they don’t serve the purpose at times.

For instance

, the dishwashers are not meant to clean a

lot

of utensils which are hollow and deep which needs to be cleaned with hands again after washing it in the dishwasher, which increases the

time

and effort for the consumers.

Hence

a

lot

of people think it’s better to be old fashioned. To conclude,

this

essay agrees that the modern

technology

provides a variety of ways to serve humanity and one can only be responsible of misusing the

technology

on its own accord. In my opinion, the benefits of latest communication tools and sophisticated machines reduce stress and

time

.
