As you know, we are human beings. One of the characteristics of a human is that although we have minimal strength naturally when technology is included we are the most advanced species in the world. This brings us to the topic, "The importance of technology".

To begin with, I am sure we all are familiar with the phrase "Intelligence is better than power", and it is with humans! You see, thousands of years ago, we had simple technology like pointed rocks, maybe spears, bows, arrows, etc. With these weapons/technology, we were able to hunt animals something like 10 times our size. Forward time thousands of years, we are now in the era of science and technology and became the most advanced and powerful creatures in the world. So much so that by this point the entire world is in our hands. We theoretically could just explode the world right here at this point in time using nuclear bombs or other destructive energies.

So, now we know technology is also destructive, but the main topic is the "Importance of technology", not "Destructive technology". So, time to get back to the topic. Primarily, I'd like to include that technology can be used in education, especially in this century. There are thousands if not millions of educative videos out there that can highly benefit students or even teachers. The only thing to look out for is the fact that the source is actually good or not. Other than education, there are other things as well that technology has an impact on. For example; the future! The world is getting more advanced day by day and it seems as if Artificial Intelligence will run the world later in the future. Anyways, due to the significance technology has in the future, it is crucial to know about it earlier on. 

Besides that, technology can be of help in saving lives. In fact, you may not even realize you are living off of it. How? You may ask. Time to introduce you to vaccines! Many of us have vaccines to prevent diseases like coronavirus-19, polio, typhoid, etc. Due to these, our lifespans have skyrocketed compared to our ancestors. Apart from vaccines, technology has helped save lives ever since our creation. Without our very early ancestor's technologies to hunt, we would still be living in caves hunting for dragonflies, or maybe just die already.
