Technology has proved its desirability long ago, but what is pestering the human mind is not its pervasiveness, but its communion. Humans are going through an age when technology is revaluating what it means to be human and are inadequately prepared for the new psychological world that is being created by them. In a tech-savvy world, machines primarily confer authority on people, eventually giving machines a sense of conjectured domination, which is purely inefficacious. Any technological advancement cannot only be viewed as “development” or “progression”, rather, as an evocative tool that immensely affect habits of human mind. These mere “tools” are of extensive emotional value to the users and are often even distension of themselves. The present study focuses on how machines supersede human existence and are largely a threat to human mind and emotions. Man has created an extremely powerful object that acts as a deceptive companion, giving a space of recluse, yet never allows to be sanely alone. Manjiri Prabhu depicts a world where machines are invented with a motive to abuse and kill humans, considering them inferior to machines and of less significance. In a world where co-existence should be a norm for harmony, the present paper aims to analyze whether humans and machines can co-exist peacefully, and, whether the same can happen without obstructing the former’s essence and existence. |
