Every evolutionary phase has some disadvantages and technology is no different.However,if we stop evolving and innovating for the fear of it's negative impacts , then we might stop growing which means the social challenges as we know them ,will always stay.Conversely,when we make progress there might be new challenges but the past ones will be solved and we might be better placed to counter the new ones.In my opinion,we should keep steering ahead.The only thing that we should avoid is challenging the nature as that can have devastating consequences.
