Science and Technology has been impacting our lives since ages but let us focus mainly on today’s situation and keep our topic more relevant. So let’s dive right in
Science and Technology has positive and negative impact on us. In contrast of boon and curse on this topic, there is also a glimpse of our future surrounded with science and technology in our world. Humans have also impacted the way science and technology handles has been managed by engineers, scientists and researchers around the world. It all goes hand in hand and the situation makes the very existence of human race in danger due to its technological advancements in creating super robots and machines. There is likeliness that most of the jobs from cooking to delivering and vehicle driving will be fully automated by next decade or so.
In reality, the humans use technology for its own advancement but fail to understand that human being’s jobs will be done powerfully and successfully by machines and society will completely transform it’s services like providing schooling, housing and travelling and more. So many other social aspects like marriage, having no children and so other social issues list that is not imaginable till we see the evolution in the real life situation. There are infinite potential and possibilities that science and technology has bestowed upon us, but the price we will pay will be in terms of physical, mental and socio-psychological issues may lead to unsatisfied and unhappy human beings.
Let’s first see in brief how science and technology has positives to boast about, and alongside the curse it bears to embrace it.
| Science and Technology | Impact on Humans (Boon) | Humans Impact (on how they manage) (Curse) |
| Genetic Engineering | Bovines in cows for dairy to increase milk production or modified food or modifies genes | Playing God” has become a strong argument against genetic engineering. Several issues have also been raised as regards the acceptance of this technology |
| Medical breakthrough discoveries | Human cloning and example of sheep dolly is not new to us. Cloning humans got a debate on social and ethical grounds. In 2002 human cloning was legally banned,(according to National Academy of Sciences report-2002) | Biological weaponry may be on rise. (Opinion: Relevant example may be the spread of novel viruses worldwide to create fear, deaths and destruction around the world. COVID-19 may be made in labs is the conspiracy theories around it) |
| Voice powered up lives | More of speakers, radios, podcast and similar devices that can be activated with your voice are on rise. Google Home, Alexa and many more small big fishes may come into the market with voice-recognition technology. Voice powered lives and automation will make our lives easier and lethargic too. | People get engaged into technology, may just have less interaction with human and more with a talking gadget. There may be rise in irritability and mental as well as socio-psychology health issues. |
| Reaching Mars through Elevator | We have reached moon, and now we have the concept of reaching planet mars using an elevator. As bizarre as it sounds, but it can be a reality in next decade or so. The problem of having the cable or tether in the low orbit intersects with of two moons Phobos and Deimos. This could lead to collision. So there is research going on to resolve the problem for launching the cables and make the elevator to mars mission successful. Podcast link to Space Party | We are going to manage this mission soon. Now we may also pollute our new home on planet mars. Plastic bottles, juice cups, of course cyber trucks and cars may be soon polluting mars. 100% electric vehicle can be a great choice. Other vehicles should be ban on mars. |
| Artificial Intelligence and Automation | AI has practically taken over all the spheres of human life. Cooking and delivering pizzas using machines is now possible. Drones transporting humans in short distances is now not a new concept anymore. Tennis player is coached by using AI. Scanning your face and getting all information in less than a second. Automation renders human replacement so well that we are to adapt or sit home jobless. | Privacy will become a big problem with AI invading human space. Automation makes human replacement so well that we are to adapt or sit home jobless. Human to human communication will be scarce and people will suffer social-economic and mental imbalance in a major way. |
Check My Universe, Social Media for Education.
Virtual schools, offices, on the go learning, casual approach to studies, AI and automation of all the work is the new decade we wished for. Here it is, we are seeing unemployment not only due to pandemics but also AI, automation and advancement in technology and changing trends and transformation in our society. There is a major dynamic paradigm shift in 2019-2020-2021 that will change the economies of the world in coming decade or two. This is scary to some countries and empowering to some economies in the world.

Dream Product: Social Media for Education™
Introduction
I am an educator and entrepreneur. I am blessed by a couple of certifications and a few degrees but my goal is to be a life-long learner. My purpose of life is to serve the community, the society at large. The one path that I chose is education-isn’t it a lethal combination to have a techy-business head and being an educator and a woman :). In short I want to do and offer more than I even I think I can. Remember money is not the first thing I choose, I choose service, respect and integrity over money, I choose spreading goodness and knowledge around in the most humble way possible.
