People are now more dependent on technology, meaning that they can't practice their favorite sport without a smartwatch on their wrist because they need to know their heartbeat. They have to know how many steps they walk throughout the day. Technology, in general, now helps humans finish jobs that required a lot of effort in the past, such as using drones to plant seeds instead of using hands directly to harvest the land.

Try to balance the positive and negative impacts for a more comprehensive response.
