Technology and Being

Technology refers to the tools, systems, and devices humans create to solve problems, improve efficiency, and extend capabilities. Being pertains to existence and the nature of consciousness, identity, and experience. Together, they intersect when technology influences how we perceive ourselves and the world—shaping our understanding of existence, consciousness, and what it means to be human. While technology enhances our lives, being is about core human experience. Recognizing their relationship helps us navigate ethical, philosophical, and practical questions about the role of technology in shaping our identity and reality.
