AI overview
Technology refers to tools, machines, and systems that people design and build to solve problems and accomplish tasks, like the steam turbine shown here which converts energy into useful power. It matters because technology helps us work more efficiently, improve our lives, and tackle challenges we couldn't otherwise manage.

Technology is the application of conceptual knowledge to achieve practical goals, especially in a reproducible way. The word technology can also mean the products resulting from such efforts, including both tangible tools such as utensils or machines, and intangible ones such as software. Technology plays a critical role in science, engineering, and everyday life.
