Illustration Essay: Technology Leads To Laziness “I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction. The world will have a generation of idiots” (Einstein). Today this world is being drowned in technology, cell phones, television, and types of transportation. Not only was Einstein correct but also, technology has taken humans even further; we have become lazy. There are countless examples to prove Einstein’s theory but, think of the obvious ones. When we come home we find our family most of the time lounging and “chilling” on the couch with an electronic device or watching TV. Instead of performing chores or something productive they insist on reading the latest gossip on a popular blog or social network and push aside the more important responsibilities. “I’ll do it later” or “One sec” is what is said most of time but all that comes to mind is laziness. “Wi-Fi” is the new trend of the twenty first century; wireless internet.
