As people rely more and more on technology to solve problems, the ability of humans to think for themselves will surely deteriorate.

If the technology affect the human thinking then Leeuwenhoek never discovered the microscope and we never find out there is some living organisms exist in the atmosphere. Because of the invention of the microscope we can think the pros and cons of the microorganism. Technology relies on human thinking ,if human would not think then technology could not be fabricated. Technology does not degenerate the human thinking But it foster the human thinking directly or indirectly.
Likewise to diagnosis a disease we use the technology, without technology we can never find out the nature of the disease, With the help of technology we can find out the type of disease and then we can think carefully how to cure the disease.
For instance, we are searching for jobs ,If we don’t have enough information about the company ,we ask to another people and thus without thinking and tussle, we join the company. If we have technology ,For example with the help of computer we can surf whole information about the company on the internet and we can read the views of the other people in forums, After getting the information and different views of other people ,we could think carefully and decide whether he has to apply for the job in this company. Similarly, if we are aficionado of the nature and want visit to the foreign country, and we want to see some natural beauty Instead of asking someone we can get the enough information with the help of technology and then we could think ,which place would be good for us.
In some extent ,we can say that technology deteriorate the human thinking, Technology have made our life so easy, we can get everything without any tussle, likewise Children plays the video game ,without thinking they spend whole day in front of the video game or television. Similarly, In mathematics we learn the formula to solve a problem, but because of the fabrication of the calculator we directly solve the problem without thinking, We have dependent on the calculator without calculator we cannot solve the problem. Likewise Television ,cell phones have degenerated the human thinking ,,People can communicate to each other without any tussle .
In the end I would say in greater extent technology increase our thinking. Technology is a result of high level intelligent thinking of humans trying to solve the problems. To use the technology we also need to think how to use the technology without thinking we cannot even use the technology.
