Default Will rapidly advancing technology make us primitive in the long run?

So, as I sat, looking through the CT threads, eating honey roasted peanuts, I began to think: Will technology designed for the purpose of making typical events easier screw us over in the long run?

I'm rather tired and have to leave for school in about a half hour, so i don't have time for a lengthy explanation of what i'm trying to say here... So i'll try to get in as much as time and consciousness permit.

One of the sole purposes of technology is to make tasks easier. We have programmed robots building our cars, cleaning our houses, and bottling our Pepsi. What if, one day in the future, human beings had almost no responsibilities because it was all done by machinery, and we lost the knowledge of how to do things that had been formerly done by technology?

What if simple tasks like eating had been taken care of by robots in this future, and we had forgotten how to; then the machinery used to do it was no more? What would become of the world then?

I think that the natural craving of a human being for tasks to be easier or eliminated will inevitably come to this.

PS: As i said, i was tired when i posted this... so if it makes absolutely no sense, please blame sleep deprivation and not me.
