"Technology itself is not inherently discriminatory; it can bring both prosperity and disaster depending on how it is used. The difference in DNA between chimpanzees and human beings is only about 2 to 3 percent, a seemingly small variation. However, the remarkable divergence in intelligence between the two species highlights the significance of our intellect. Hence, we must exercise great caution and responsibility in how we utilize our intellectual capacities. We don't entrust dangerous objects like knives to children not because the knives are inherently dangerous, but rather because children may not possess the necessary level of intellect to handle them wisely"

πFor essay/ethics- Arrogance and Ignoranceπ
β In the Hindu epic Ramayana, Ravana is depicted as a person of immense intellect, credited with creating numerous songs, musical instruments, and possessing expertise in the Vedas. However, his intellect became overshadowed by ignorance, arrogance, and pride. As a result, he made the emotional decision to kidnap Sita, which ultimately brought doom upon his entire family and kingship. This serves as a powerful reminder that one's thoughts play a pivotal role in shaping their consciousness, influencing their state of mind, and potentially leading to regrettable actions.
β During a historical event, the Shah of Iran had the opportunity to receive an ambassador from Genghis Khan, who sought to establish trade and peaceful relations with Iran, then known as Persia. However, driven by arrogance and self-pride, the Shah tragically chose to kill the envoy of peace. This act of aggression angered Genghis Khan, leading to the sack of Baghdad and the eventual destruction of the Shah's kingdom. This serves as a stark reminder that allowing emotions to govern decisions can lead to self-destruction and bring harm to others as well.
