It's made the world more comfortable, but not necessarily "better," which is an attribute that is both vague and open widely to interpretation.
Technology is responsible for the loss of countless jobs, making people unable to work and buy new technological comforts. Technology is responsible for sophisticated weaponry that now has us all living in fear. It allows us to overpopulate and monopolize and kill off our natural environment. Technology is responsible for fatty foods that we can't burn off, because of other technology that allows us to sit behind the TV, computer, video game screen, etc. to accomplish all our tasks and receive all our "pleasure."
Technology is convenient and efficient. It turns a profit for the company, but only by putting countless others out of a job over the course of enough time.
Of course, technology is also used to save lives and help restore some of the damage we've done. So the question is loaded and has many answers.

No, people are more lazy now, children weigh a lot more and are not at a healthy weight range, because of being on the computer 24/7 and watching TV, and other gadgets that do jobs that we used to do manually for us. I expect the life expectancy to be at a lower age for the newer generations.

All I have to say is, without technology my daughter would not be alive today; without technology my world would not have been a better place to live in.

Yes it most certainly has. We have information at our fingertips, cures for deadly ailments. As well as a new vision of the world around us.
