Modern (Digital) time

1. Technology can bring convenience and efficiency.  The whole industrial production becomes systematic. Machinery can speed up the whole production, machines can work faster than manpower, and it can omit a lot of steps which need to be done by manpower before, it saves manpower at the same time. It also makes sure that each product is identical, quality can be guaranteed.  As the production can be speeded up, it saves time and mass production can be implemented.  Since camera has been invented, it shortens the distance between  people, boss can communicate with workers through the camera, he doesn't have to come down physically and talk to workers in front of them.  He can still talk to his workers even if staying at his office.  Obviously, if manpower can be reduced, efficiency can be increased, then it can help the company to make more profit and, of course, the boss can benefit from that.  Workers can benefit from it as well as the production procedures can be well organized.

2. Firstly, these technologies brings convenience to the main character, Charlie, as mentioned in no.1.  However, it brings negative impacts on him too.  Since the technology is invented, as time goes by, it seems that technology starts leading and dominating human. Charlie and other workers cater to the machine, the circuit tape.  Also, technology isn't, eventually, human mind, error can be happened and become out of control and ruin human.  Finally, Charlie starts having illusion and confusion between working with real people and working with machine.  We can see that Charlie can't stop doing the same action even if he is off from work and does it on human, not only on product.

3. In fact, computer and internet really bring convenience to us. Just one click, a lot of information can be found out, even international information. Computer and internet can save us time.  However, since everything can be done at home or we just have to sit in front of the computer, I think we start lacking of experiences. There are still something we better go to experience it rather than just get it from the internet, such as culture, it should be different.
