How Technology Redefines the 21st Century Human Being

The impact of technology on everyday life has brought about significant changes, understandable for the young, turbulent for the old.

Organised groups advocate for children's rights. Religious leaderships crack. Equality and freedom are at stake. No one doubts that technology is 'redefining the human being of the 21st century': what values do we want, what role will artificial intelligence play, should we limit the use of technology, will we turn to saving our planet, or will we look to the cosmos for a place to seed life? The future is unpredictable, we are creating new ways of living together for the new age. The dominance of technology is leaving negative trails, loneliness lurks, happiness metamorphoses. We will analyse the above, focusing the emphasis on the fact that fortunately the desire to live in society and to be happy still prevails in homo sapiens!
