It is inevitable that traditional cultures will be lost as technology develops. Technology and traditional cultures are incompatible. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this view?

It is certainly true that during these days,
technology
is becoming more widespread in many parts of the developed world,
however
, it might affect the traditional
cultures
and change them from roots. In my point of view, I agree with
this
somewhat, and I believe that the traditional
cultures
have benefited and impacted

technology
. On the one hand,
technology
has accomplished several important benefits to preserve the cultural heritage. One of the main reasons can be that smart appliances like televisions and mobile phones display different civilizations of various countries, which means that people from foreign
cultures
can learn a wide range of information about
this
culture.
Furthermore
,
technology
can reveal many secrets about old traditions for the young generation.
As a result

On the other hand

possible to make the opposing case that in fact, there are multiple negative influences on the country's culture because of

This
means that they have the ability to follow and copy popular celebrities actions, habits, and behaviour, which might lead to the death of the country's culture and traditions. A particularly good example here is that in some Arab countries, people are obsessed with famous celebrities and act like them and dressed like them. In conclusion, while
