We are becoming increasingly dependent on computer-based technology. How do you think it will change in the future? Is it good for us to rely so much on computers?

In recent years dependence on computer-based technology in everyday life has increased significantly. For millions of

people

, it is impossible to imagine their lives without

computers

, smartphones or other modern gadgets. The use of developing technologies improves and simplifies our lives and everyday activities,

although

there are definitely some drawbacks to

such

high rates of

this

growth.

Computers

help us with a number of tasks,

such

as ordering food, finding medical clinics online, booking tickets or transferring money.

This

makes

people

rely on technologies too much and I consider that

this

trend in near future will continue.

For instance

, even 5 years ago online banking wasn't as popular as it is right now.

People

had to go to the bank, communicate with

people

to make transactions, while now for modern

people

this

action seems like a waste of time. There are disadvantages of depending on

computers

so heavily.

First

of all, all computer systems, even the most developed ones, are not 100 per cent secure. Data always can be lost or stolen, systems can be crashed accidentally or on purpose and the internet connection is not always stable.

Moreover

,

people

are losing some core skills because of using technologies every day,

such

as communicating and dealing with problems in real life.

However

, I believe that the opportunities that

people

have because of technological progress are more important than the number of problems that we will have to deal with in the future. To sum up, I think that

people

will become even more dependent on

computers

than they are right now. Despite some obvious drawbacks of technology dependency,

computers

are improving our lives and saving time which is very important in the modern world.
