Technology has lead to threat to human development, I am under no team

Look, you've got this completely backwards! Technology isn't stunting human development - it's *accelerating* it at warp speed. We're living through the greatest explosion of human potential in history, and you're worried about threats? Think about it: A kid in rural Bangladesh can now access the same MIT lectures as someone in Boston. We've got teenagers building apps that solve real problems, elderly people video-calling grandchildren across continents, and researchers collaborating instantly across time zones. That's not threatening development - that's *supercharging* it! Sure, there are downsides - social media can be toxic, screen time concerns are real. But you know what's more threatening to human development? Poverty, disease, and ignorance. Technology is crushing all three. We've got AI helping doctors diagnose cancer faster, smartphones putting the world's knowledge in everyone's pocket, and platforms connecting brilliant minds who never could have found each other before. The real threat isn't technology - it's people who want to retreat from progress because change feels scary. Every generation thinks the new thing will ruin everything. They said books would destroy memory, TV would rot brains, and video games would create killers. Spoiler alert: humans adapted and thrived every time. We're not becoming less human - we're becoming *more* human by amplifying our natural abilities to learn, create, and connect!
