Over the past 2-3 decades, technology has become so important for our lives such that it has taken over our lives. Take a moment, stop reading this post and look around you. What do you notice? Do you see tech, gadgets, laptops?

Notice how our lives are surrounded by gadgets and tech appliances. The laptop at your desk, the cell phone next to your bed, the Wifi router, - all these are examples of how technology has transformed every aspect of our lives; and like everything, this also comes with pros and cons.

Describing our day How many of you'll wake up without the alarm that has been set up on your mobile phone. Or don't use the oven to warm up your food and don't use an iron to press your clothes? Will be throwing light on a few gadgets that have transformed our lives.

  • Smartphone Revolution

It was just over a decade ago when cell phones were primarily used for calling and sending texts. Today, the uses of cell phones run the gamut. Phones do everything from taking high-resolution pictures to watching pixel-perfect videos, browsing the internet to playing graphic-intensive games to monitoring your movements. It’s astonishing at how this small device can handle demanding tasks in addition to fulfilling basic communication needs.

The advent of smartphones has simplified our lives immensely. People now connect with their loved ones more frequently and easily through video calls and instant messaging services. Tasks, like creating slides, reading emails, and creating documents don’t require a PC anymore.

In a nutshell, smartphone and apps have changed the way we work, communicate and play. In addition, the booming expansion of e-commerce and internet-based companies is directly proportional to the rapid proliferation of smartphones.

  • Less-Active Lifestyle

While the smartphone revolution has made our lives easy, it has also made us lazy. Today, the whole world is at our fingertips, and thus we don’t have to work or move around as we did previously to get things done.

Our sedentary lifestyle and lack of physical activities can be partly attributed to the over-dependence on smartphones. This is especially true for the younger generation, who are constantly glued to their cell phones. In the modern era, cell phone addiction is having a negative impact on our lives. Care needs to be taken to deal with this issue in an effective way.

  • Robotics and Artificial Intelligence

Came across this term only when I visited TCS and got an insight of the various revolutions that have taken place and now we are moving towards a more environment friendly aspect of the revolution.

sophisticated machines that are capable of working with minimal human intervention are sophisticated robots too. Driverless cars are yet another example of AI and robotics. With tech giants like Google, Tesla, and BMW involved in the production of driverless cars, it looks like we are going to see self-driving cars sooner than we may have expected.

People believe the introduction of robotics will lead to mass unemployment.
You see all these problems are connected and the future is unpredictable and possibilities are limitless. What's next on the card? They'll leave us thinking but I've got one thing straight.

We can leave our homes without water but not without our cellphones!
