Hello Everyone,
Technology is something which can replace human work more efficiently and effectively without extensive training as it is programmed to do so.
Technology advancement such as AI is a serious threat to employment as AI can replace all the job that requires us to first learn to analyse and then provide a solution, so practically all the jobs and also the unskilled job market.
For Eg: The Robo-advisors are replacing investment bankers and brokers. The unskilled labour has been replaced by advanced plants.
So to conclude technology has a humungous impact on the job market overthrowing one job and another. This is a serious threat to the job market. As using a computer than a human is much more efficient and cheaper.

Technology is a boon not a curse. It can be proved only by us. If the technology is introduced in an area it decreases the burden of the work and saves time and increases efficiency.
There may be some people who are not educated will only depend on their labour but there is also some alternatives for them that how to learn to operate a particular machine. As the world is in an advanced mode, we are ready to face the competition of a single job over lakh of people by expressing our special talent so that we are also in an advanced mode.
Thank you.

Hello, friends good morning.
As the topic is the impact of technology on jobs so, I think due to the introduction of technology in human life it is going to be in an easier way and we can save lots of time and use this time to accomplish another task also we can take a example of robot people think that jobs are going to be ended by introducing robots but its not much true. The jobs are relocated that is the transformation of job takes place from one form to another people gets a job by introducing robot they give jobs in electronics industry mechanical engineer can get a job in designing of the robot so by introducing technology life to become easier if we use it in a possitive way.

Hello everyone.
I am Narinder.
It is modern era, As technology is increasing the no. Of jobs is decreasing. Where 10 workers were working now there need only 2 to do work. It leads to increase unemployment in India. Machines are replacing man. Also, technology makes us lazy. Our creativity is decreasing. We are becoming overdependent on it. Suppose the light is off for one day all the works will stop.
But it has some positive aspects also. It reduces the time to do work. Jobs in the area of technology is increased. There is new techniques which make our work easy. We cannot imagine World without technology. Technology takes revolution in I industrial sector. Work from home is possible because of technology.
Thank you.

Hello everyone.
I would like to share my views regarding the impact of technology on jobs.
In pandemic time, the technology really saves many lives like the software employees receiving the salaries on time and lead their life.
Most of the people struggling to go outside to purchase the things then that time this online delivery of food and groceries really helped us a lot and doesn't let to go outside. But the one who are doing online delivery jobs they must take care themselves while supplying the products why because we are believing them and not going outside to buy the things even the situation is danger in COVID time.

Hello everyone,
Impact of technology can cause short-term job losses is widely accepted. The view that it can lead to lasting increases in unemployment has long been controversial. There are so many debates on technological unemployment. The debate can be broadly divided into optimists and pessimists. Optimists agree that innovation may be disruptive to jobs in the short term, yet hold that various compensation effects ensure there is never a long-term negative impact on jobs, whereas pessimists claim that at least in some circumstances, new technologies can lead to a lasting decline in the total number of workers in employment.
Adoption of technology, global reach and faster communication has overhauled manufacturing, servicing, product delivery and also employment associated with these sectors. But, this is not the first time the world has experienced significant shifts in employment due to new technology. History states that technology has been a creator of jobs and has augmented new avenues.
Top 5 most automated countries in the world (2017) :
1) South Korea - Unemployment rate 3.6%.
2) Singapore - Unemployment rate 2%.
3) Germany - Unemployment rate 3.4%.
4) Japan - Unemployment rate 2.4%.
5) United states - Unemployment rate 3.9%.
In 2017, India -Unemployment rate 4.05%.
Top 5 highest unemployment rate in the world:-.
1) Spain - Unemployment rate 15.30%.
2) Brazil - Unemployment rate 12.40%.
3) Italy - Unemployment rate 10.40%.
4) Turkey - Unemployment rate 9.60%.
5) France - Unemployment rate 9.20%.
Above the unemployment rate represents that technology does not create long-term unemployment.

Hi, guys.
This is Aditi and I would like to share my thaughts on this topic that is very trending and interesting too.
The term technology nowadays is most trending with the growing world. If we talk on internet across the world becomes a basic needs for updating and for growth of knowledge with the upcoming technologies.
Artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning becomes basic requirement in industries. The world is in the moon and getting information outside the world with the help of this technology.
To use technology and grow is not the problem but using it in a proper place is my consideration where the work cannot be done manually then this becomes a priority but many skilled, as well as unskilled job, are at risk, for them "the work is worship" so, to have a proper implementation can balance both the Situations.
Have a nice day one & all.

Hello everyone,
Our topic of discussion is the impact of technology on the job.
If we talk about the positive side.
* Nowadays we see the internet digitally connecting everything, leading to saving more time than before.
* As we see in all office's finger touch attendance by digital technology.
If I talk about the negative side;
* It makes a man lazy.
* And this decreases the employment opportunities for unskilled people.

2. Time-consuming.
3. Error happening in the industry is less.
4. Economy growth.
DEMERITS:-
1. Due to the increase in automatic machines unemployment is increasing.
2. Dependency on machines are blindly following by organization.
3. Less chances of getting jobs in any era.

In my point of view, there are positive as well as negative impacts of technology are there on jobs.
Firstly, I would like to speak about the positive impacts.
The new technologies have reduced human effort. Last year I went to the numaligarh refinery and in the wax plant of the refinery, I saw that the packaging was done by some machines rather than manually.
It also consumes less time and as a result, more number of works can be done in a given time.
There are also negative impacts such as in the villages there is a huge number of uneducated people who are not familiar with such technologies. So it increases the risk of unemployment.
Also, the technology reduces the manpower there is a huge risk of unemployment. Recently Amazon has launched drone for a delivery purpose which has increased the risk of unemployment for the delivery boy.
