Jaspers (1958) indicates the following: "Technology is just a means, neither good nor bad in itself. Everything
it depends on what the man does with it, for what purpose it serves him, under what conditions
use.
As we see today, technology has become something everyday that everyone
It is used under certain responsibilities, providing us benefits, but also disadvantages.
For example, if we talk about benefits in the social sphere, we could mention the following according to the
blog Lobbyfix:
Easy access to any type of information, better communication and social interaction, education to
access for all, improves the lifestyle and promotes a better quality of life
The disadvantages that exist so far are:
Loss of privacy and anonymity, greater insecurity of confidential information, isolation
social and lack of empathy, promotes sedentary behavior and the reduction of creativity and reasoning

Having all this information, some people continue to misuse it, as they do daily.
we are also victims of fraud, theft, piracy, among others that affect not only society,
also to the health of individuals, which is why one must be aware of the use we make of it
technology without excesses and good management to obtain productive benefits from it, as already
mentioned above.
It is the technique that employs scientific knowledge; more precisely, a body of knowledge is
a technology in itself and only if it is compatible with contemporary science and controllable by
scientific method, it is used to control, transform things or natural or social processes. The
technology is demonstrated as a symbiosis between the theoretical knowledge of science - whose purpose is the
search for truth - with the technique - whose purpose is utility -. The purpose of technology
it would be the search for a useful truth." Bunge (1981)

Its importance increases as the world delves into what we now call
"knowledge society" in which the enormous cognitive capacity of humanity must
exert an increasing influence on the lives of societies and individuals.

Furthermore, the control of knowledge at different moments in the history of humanity

has been accompanied by inequalities, exclusions, and social conflicts, which implies that day

As strategies are designed to allow for greater appreciation of science and the

knowledge, application, and decision-making based on scientific-technical evidence that

The automation of processes is also an excellent alternative that will improve the
productivity of a work team, especially with simple and repetitive tasks that will be
delegated to the machine in question and will allow human attention to focus on things of greater
priority.
We should also mention that technology has created new ways to generate energy to which
we call renewable energy, thus representing the future of electric production and development

Clear examples stand out such as the use of hydroelectric, wind, solar, nuclear energy, among others.

Although its high cost requires a significant capital investment, companies continue to have
heterogeneity in the face of this.

In organizations, technology is a key factor in the tasks and responsibilities of its

members, as this helps to determine the tasks according to the position held. Likewise, the
workgroups are influenced by technology in composition, communication and
existing physical mobility. It also affects functions and positions within organizations as well

The use of technology has become something essential in both personal and business environments.
In today's active and globalized world, companies must be quick and efficient with their
resources, also in solving their problems and removing barriers more effectively

benefits such as: more optimal processes, greater productivity, reduction of barriers of

it should go hand in hand with the advances that are made periodically and thus maintain the
competitiveness in the market.

to plan, organize, direct, and control which serve to achieve the objectives or goals of a
organization with the use of resources such as human, financial, material, and information.
Currently, there are information technologies powered by computers, systems of
information and networks, which helps to make decisions and execute tasks in institutions in
real-time and remote. Villaprado (2015)
Companies have found technology to be a competitive advantage; in this time, it is no longer

Even with all the mentioned benefits, problems arise, one of the most obvious is the
high acquisition prices, and the main affected are small businesses that seek to create
competitive advantage and achieving optimal development in various areas, which is a difficult issue
for them.
According to Quintanilla (2001), the major orientations or approaches in theories about technique and the
technology, can be grouped into three sections: the instrumental orientation, the cognitive, and the
systemic.
The instrumental conception is defined as how humanity views technology as
simple tools or artifacts built for a variety of tasks, this is the result of
technical knowledge. This is good in itself as it gives us a clear and simple definition of the
symbiosis that can be made between man and machine.
The cognitive approach, according to various authors, distinguishes between technology and technique, the former being one
application of science and another is empirical, without the aid of scientific knowledge, but the relationship

The systemic approach refers to actions aimed at the transformation of objects for

According to Concytec (2016), it states that 'the generation of knowledge through research and
development produces positive externalities in society, whether through the direct use of technologies
such as the Internet that has allowed to overcome geographical barriers and increase the
communication between people or by the new diagnostic procedures that allow

If our country fully utilizes knowledge, new models can be generated.

education and research and development, policies and strategies where the citizen can value the
importance of knowledge and its application based on scientific and technological results
that are generated in the country.

Conclusions

As technologies continue to improve and are widely adopted, it is possible

that their costs decrease and are within the reach of smaller companies.

Technology has played a very important role in society and business, increasing the
Productivity in most countries, giving competitive advantages to companies.

One must be aware that its use can bring advantages and disadvantages, depending on how
it is used.

It is important to raise awareness of the importance of managing technology.

The use of clean technology is essential and viable for maintaining a good environment and development.
