A story of science and technology that creates a sustainable future

What skills will we need most in the future society?
What impact will automation have on human jobs?
What impact does social media have on people's communication?
What discrimination and inequality will genetic technology bring about?
What if everyone doesn't have access to expensive, cutting-edge medical technology?

Smartphone addiction can be linked to mental health problems such as anxiety, depression, and increased stress.
The stimulation of social media can increase psychological stress by making us compare ourselves to others.
Time wasting reduces productivity and concentration, which leads to various safety accidents such as traffic accidents.
Another problem is the decline in social interaction as opportunities to interact directly with people decrease.

One of the negative effects of social media is the promotion of narrow-mindedness. Social media tends to attract like-minded individuals, which reduces the opportunity for exposure to diverse opinions.
This reinforces narrow-minded thinking and limits the diversity of information.

Increased agricultural productivity has helped reduce hunger.
But there are still many hungry people around the world.
This is due to political and economic problems rather than food shortages.
There is a lot of food, but it is not distributed properly.
This situation reminds us that improving fairness and efficiency in food distribution is as important as advancing agricultural technology.

Preserving the genetic diversity of crops is very important.
To do this, we need to encourage and protect diverse varieties.
Genetic diversity allows crops to adapt to different environmental conditions and pests.
This must be maintained for sustainable agriculture and food security.

If we could communicate with animals, it would be a momentous event that would fundamentally change the relationship between humans and nature, beyond simply advancing new science and technology.

Genetic information is very sensitive and could cause great damage if leaked.
There is also the possibility of genetic discrimination.
For example, people with certain genes may be excluded from insurance or employment.
In this way, the development of genetic decoding technology raises ethical and social issues.

Genetic engineering could interfere with the natural course of human development and evolution, and its long-term impact on humanity is unknown.
Ultimately, genetic engineering technology raises many ethical and social issues, so it is a field that must be approached cautiously while creating various safety measures.

Currently, much of the new drug development and medical research is primarily based on the genes of Caucasians.
So, side effects may be more severe for other races, especially black people.
Koreans, who are Asians, are no exception, right?

The international community must establish clear guidelines and regulations regarding the military use of artificial intelligence.
This is not a measure to limit technological advancement, but rather a necessary measure to protect human safety and human rights.
We need international cooperation and a monitoring system to develop guidelines and ensure their effective implementation.

While it's good to prepare for a promising career in the future, it's more important to find something you enjoy and can be happy with.
Occupations are created and disappear over time.
But once you decide what you want to do, you can find a job that suits you.

Technology will continue to change, but creativity, empathy, and critical thinking will always be valuable.
A balanced preparation is needed to develop these abilities while simultaneously acquiring new skills and knowledge.

Advances in science and technology bring many benefits to our lives, but they can also sometimes bring about unexpected negative consequences.
For example, plastic is a very useful invention, but it has also caused environmental pollution and waste problems.
Smartphones and the Internet have revolutionized information and communication, but their excessive use is deteriorating the quality of interpersonal relationships and leading to addiction problems.

Ethical considerations are very important in scientific and technological development.
We need to carefully consider how science and technology will impact people, especially whether artificial intelligence will take away people's jobs, and carefully design them to avoid negatively impacting vulnerable groups and minorities.

Several studies have shown that facial recognition technology has a high rate of misidentification of faces of Black people and other minorities.
This means that minorities are at risk of being unfairly branded as criminals or treated unfairly.

Sustainability is a very important consideration in scientific and technological development.
Any scientific technology must be developed so that it can be useful to future generations without harming the environment.

If we want, we can take the lead in various science and technology and determine their direction.
To do so, we must accurately understand the benefits and potential risks offered by science and technology, and practice sound learning, thinking, and behavior in all areas of our daily lives and social participation.
