Do you think that technology is changing human-beings into robots?

I am using word 'Robots' to say the feeling less and emotionless humans.

    You are very true in saying that we have become emotionless creatures. Technology has made us so selfish that we don't have time for others, society and world even not for our own family. Our selfishness is reached at heights that we won't get attracted by a person met with an accident on road who need our help. Perhaps we are changed more than the speed of time. Because we always feel that we won't have time in excess to contribute somewhere. Thanks

    I see it this way:

    Humans are now more than ever in much contact with one another, over phone, internet, etc. Even in less privileged countries (trying to speak like the politically correct!!!), many millions of people keep in touch best way they can through emails and social sites on internet.

    As for seeming robot-like: To anyone who's never witnessed another human looking self-absorbed as he or she plays with an Iphone or constantly smiles at her or himself while looking at photos on a cell phone or other apparatus, well, yes that looks weird. But, you know what, most of us are catching up to the new trends!

    I'm not that into technology. Although I notice a lot of people are constantly attached to some form of it most of the time. No. It doesn't change them to robots. It just tethers them.

    no, not at all. Technology assists humans in living their lives, it doesn't change us into it, that would be impossible.
