Has Technology Outpaced Human Ethics?

[Urvashi]

Innovation advances faster than regulation, shaping lives in ways society barely comprehends. Has human morality kept pace with technological growth, or have we created tools we are not ready to use responsibly? How can ethics evolve without stifling discovery or empowering exploitation?

I don't think technology is being developed with ethics and morality in mind. If that was the case, a lot of things wouldn't exist today.

In many ways, yes. Technology evolves faster than society’s ability to establish ethical guidelines. AI, genetic engineering, and surveillance tools create possibilities without clear moral frameworks. While innovation drives progress, it often outpaces discussions about responsibility, fairness, and harm, leaving humans struggling to catch up with the ethical implications of what we can do versus what we should do.
