Technology enriched our lives. But in the excess of pursuing convenience, something was also lost.

あまり

解説 · Why

〜あまり expresses an outcome brought about by excess: 便利さを追求するあまり ("in the excess of pursuing convenience"), something was lost.

誤答 · Why the other options are wrong

うえで — うえで ("upon doing") does not convey the excessive cause.

ところで — 〜たところで ("even if") does not fit.

いっぽう — 一方 marks a parallel contrast, but here it is an excess causing a loss.
