Computers have had a significant effect on humanity and have made life both less and more safe in different ways. An example of how computers have made the world safer is the technology that allows potentially dangerous individuals to be identified via AI facial recognition software. The ability to remotely spot a potential threat over a large area greatly benefits safety. An example of how computers have made life safer for factory workers is that many modern machines can identify safety threats and warn the workers or automatically stop machines to verify the worker’s safety. A third example of how computers have made the world safe is the invention of cars with driving assists. The ability for vehicles to stop on their own if an optical or person is detected has undoubtedly resulted in fewer vehicle-related deaths. The implementation of lane assist features has also played a role in safety, as drivers are alerted when they begin leaving their lanes. While there are undoubtedly many benefits associated with computers and other devices, there are also some safety concerns, particularly regarding privacy. A good example of potential danger is a feature on snap chat that allows people friended to see the user’s location. While this may seem harmless, it presents an opportunity for stalking. Another potential danger from computers is the invention of weapons of mass destruction capable of traveling at hypersonic speed. These weapons can destroy entire cities and are almost impossible to counter in any meaningful way. The third argument for the dangers of computers is humanity’s reliance upon their use. People everywhere constantly use their phones or other devices and tend to be unaware of their surroundings. It has gotten to the point where it is not uncommon while driving to see someone drifting out of their lane and then realizing that they were on their phone.
