Yes, increased technology usually allows humans to have faster and more efficient ways of accomplishing tasks. But at the same time, it can also be counter-argued that because we can accomplish things faster with the use of technology, that it ultimately has the ability to take away our will to work at things in order to accomplish them, thus making us lazier.
One technological advance that has increased laziness in humans is the television. With the introduction of the television, humans found a way to not only satisfy their entertainment needs in the comfort of their own homes, but with this invention they have also been able to discover a new way to become simply, lazy. In fact, television watching time over the years has lead to increased obesity in many children around the world. When the television remote was introduced, although it kept us on couches for extended periods of time, it became a fundamental change in the way that people engaged with the television experience. However, this technological advance ultimately has lead to our current “couch potato” society, which is a classic example of technology making us lazy.

Technology has allowed us to grow and expand as humans. As we have become more advanced in technology, we have been able to create many things essential to the survival of our species, as well as make life, well, more enjoyable. However, these same advancements in technology have also made us lazier due to the fact that technology can accomplish a lot of tasks that humans had to do manually in the past.
