Social side effects of Technology?

Hello. I see a lot of people praising technology, how it has changed our world in a good way, which is true. But no one stating the disadvantages, espically social disadvantages. Being a programmer and a technology enthusiastic, I've realized just as good as technology can be - can also be bad, which has led me to become lazier and unhealthier.

There was a time, I'd have excuse to go out for shopping, eating etc. But not anymore, as I can just do that at home anyways. Apart from that, the new cool is being active on social networks and keeping up to date with them (Yes, I'm a teen) Otherwise you get left out. And social networks just depress me. Since I'm a programmer, most of the day I'm just programming if not, then just playing games - All on my chair and due to this, my eyesight also became very weak, however it's starting to get a bit better after following the 20-20 rule, which has helped me alot TBH.

I fear the day when AI takes over and all our work will be done by robots, we'd probably all end up obsess. I found this article about social side effects of technology on facebook, which made me wake up and want to start exercising or get a different career path. Am I the only who thinks like this, or are there others who can relate to me? It'd be nice to get away from all this technology, even for a minute.
