Technological revolution and the reconfiguration of Human Life – A philosophical approach

Abstract The fate of man used to depend on the “mercy” of nature. He left everything that happened in nature to chance. Nature wants it to happen that way. The only salvation for him would be if he adapted to nature’s plan. With the development of technology, people think differently about humans. He will no longer be seen as “the two-legged animal that cannot separate itself from nature.” Like the animal whose destiny is written in nature. Technology is the fact that man can surpass himself. He not only appears differently under the optics of technology, but also challenges nature by giving it a different look. As technology evolves, it conquers nature, overcomes the fate dependent on nature and changes it. It changes its destiny, even itself. With technology, he reconfigures his existence. What does that mean? We see it in many different areas of life where technology is reconfiguring humans as “God” who has the power to change. For example; at work, in education, in healthcare and in communication, new technological tools have made it easier to achieve goals. Technological development makes us see the world differently, connects us to the world differently and changes it. It is a lighthouse that, alongside the world, alongside nature, also illuminates the meaning of our being and our existence.
