Sometimes I sit alone at night and think about one strange idea that people used to talk about almost twenty years ago. Back then, many elders said that one day technology would destroy itself. They believed the world would become so dependent on machines that a single global disaster could push humanity back into an ancient age again.
At that time, these things sounded like movie stories.
But today, when I look at the wars happening in different parts of the world, the fear feels more real than fiction.
Missiles crossing skies. Drones hunting humans without emotion. Artificial intelligence growing faster than human wisdom. Countries threatening each other with weapons powerful enough to erase cities in minutes. Sometimes it honestly feels like humanity is standing near the edge of something dark.
And what scares me the most is not only the weapons.
It is silence.
Imagine waking up one morning and the internet is gone. No signals. No satellites. No electricity. Phones become useless pieces of glass. Banks stop working. Water systems fail. Hospitals shut down. Within days, modern cities could start behaving like lost civilizations.
People often say technology made humans stronger. Maybe that is true. But at the same time, it also made us extremely dependent. Most of us no longer know how to survive without systems running around us.
That is why some people believe that if a major world war ever happens, especially involving nuclear weapons, humanity may not completely disappear — but civilization itself could collapse.
And then history may repeat itself.
Small groups struggling for food. Empty buildings turning into ruins. Knowledge getting lost. Humans surviving again through fear instead of comfort. In a strange way, it would look similar to ancient times, just surrounded by the broken skeletons of modern technology.
Sometimes I wonder…
Would future humans look at our destroyed cities the same way we today look at ancient ruins?
Would they discover our phones and computers like mysterious artifacts?
Would they tell stories about a civilization that once touched the moon but failed to control its anger?
The scary part is that this thought no longer feels impossible.
Still, I believe humanity has one final chance.
Technology itself is not evil. The danger begins when human greed becomes more powerful than human wisdom. The same science that creates destruction can also heal the world if used correctly.
Maybe the real battle is not between countries.
Maybe it is between human intelligence and human ego.
And honestly… looking at today’s world, I still do not know which side is winning.
