As We May Think Reading Response

As I read As We May Think by Vannevar Bush I understand the idea as human beings we change in every thing, because of it our technology must change as well in order to surve our needs. When he gave an example on the camera on how it change over the years I found very interesting, at first you had to go though a bunch of process in order to get something with the first camera but now you can get a picture instantly. But sometimes the pursuit of new aspect of technology can be very dangerous. The reason I say that is because with new technology come big responsibility, when the warhead was invented and use on the Japanese during WWII we saw how destructive it can be. With such a destructive weapon created everyone in the word wanted it so they can either defend themselves or invade other countries. If technology keeps changing so will the weapons that is used to win wars faster, they will either be more destructive than the first war head. So as human being we should be careful of how we use the changing technology because we might make an accident that will either kill us or everyone.
