Describe three ways that computers have made the world safer and less safe.

As nowadays almost everyone’s daily lives are affected in someway by technology, we are going to look at how it’s become safer and also less safe.

Majority of the world believes that computers have made the world easier. Computers have significantly impacted our educational system as college students like myself have the ability to take courses remotely. Computers provide us with a safe space to be able to focus on our education. Ultimately, computers help people learn better. Additionally, computers have had an impact on the safety of our vehicles also. Our vehicles has high tech computers inside of them, allowing the vehicle to operate must safer and smarter. The most important to me is the fact that our money is safer. Computers and technology advancements has mad a significant difference in the management of our money. Tasks such as paying bills, gathering receipts, and comparing prices can be done in a much safer way by just the click of a button. This allows us to avoid minor mistakes. Also, computers have provided a safe way to communicate. As a result of the pandemic, people were forced to move professional communications, such as, emails and conferences online. Computers allow a business to run virtually, while also keeping in touch. The disadvantages of this can include that individuals become reliant on this form of communication. Physical communication is also important and shouldn’t be avoided.

On the other hand some may view the technological advancements of computers to be less safe as it sometimes can make us reliant on it. Relying on technology can make it less safe as activities such as sitting in front of a computer can be detrimental to one’s health. Sitting in front of a computer for long hours will likely lead to less daily exercise. Additionally, the advancement of computers has lead to a significant increase in cyber crime. Hackers have only become a major issue in the recent years.
