Does the use of technology make new world records less impressive than those of the past?

My opinion about this question is that i totally agree with that statement.
Some examples of technology in sports are:shoes with better technology which help basketball players and marathon runners.High tech swimsuits which help swimmers,and finally custom aerodynamic skin suits which help bikers.But also, some people support that that todays athletes are just more hardworking talented and dedicated.I totally desagree with that statement bacause they work with high tech gyms, screens that show the statisticks etc.
However, I think my argument is stronger because the players also worked hard back then but unfortunately without the same tech.The other day I also saw something really interesting in the news, they banned 2 shoes because they had a lot of tech in them.
To sum up, I think that todays athletes have an enormous advantage against old athletes.In fact, back then players didn't even have athletic shoes!So yes, I totally consider that todays world are less impressive than older ones.
