1. Technology is a good thing but only until it has a human to look after it.
2. Robots, automation, etc. Reduces jobs as it requires no human labour.
3. CNC machines are good examples of technology as they are to be operated on the spot by the operator (human).
4. In this way, humans have jobs as well as the work is accurate.
5. Technology is great but only under human supervision.

Thanks for giving me an opportunity to participate on today's topic "impact of technology on jobs".

According to me, the fastest growing technology will help to develop our country but also it reduces manpower.

We can save time to do our work with the help of technology.

Hello friends!

Technology provides us with a way to do the same thing smartly with less hard work. Now, we have highly advanced machines, robots etc. That can do our tasks easily in a short span of time.

So such side of technology reflects a view that it has reduced the need for labour. So we can say reduced the jobs for workers.

But there is another side of technology which reflects a totally different aspect. Technology has developed scopes like photography, automation, software development etc. It has developed varieties. Now we want a huge collection of choices. These emerging scopes have also brought more jobs.

But most of these jobs are related to technical and literate people. Now the question arises what about illiterate people. Technology has reduced their job options.

As technology is necessary for smooth and comfortable life so one solution is that we should provide proper training to those people who don't have any idea to use the new machines so that they can also earn their livelihood by adopting new technologies.

Accordong to me, Technology increases productivity but most of the work we do requires a skills and brains nas brawn, technical exeprtise. In general evolving with technology doesnt make the otger ones unnecessary. In fact it makes them more important to economic value.

I will give you one exp like ATMs could do certain cash handling task faster than tellers but that didn't make tellers unemployable it increased the importance of their problem solbing skills and their realtionship with people.

Automation creates wealth by allowing us to do more work in less time.

But on the other end obviously there is some risk of unemployment for those who are working on repetitive task like transportation and cashier because that work can do easily and smartly by robots. For those who ade working with critical thinking they will on safe job.

Hello everyone,

From my point of view, I think technologies had changed the world to its a great extend and with the use of it peoples work is reduced over the years or it gave them a chance to work more efficiently and accurately but it also reduced the job opportunity of the people like for ex. Amazon AI based drone is one of the biggest examples that how technology completely dominated the delivery jobs 'cause with the help of this Ai based drone delivery can be done in a more effective manner. This was the one example but there are various other examples in which technology has highly dominated the job opportunity and as a result of this people suffered a lot. I'm not denying the fact that it brought a huge change in the world as it helps to get our work done and with help of it many things can be accomplished but we should not forget that we are originating our own extent.

Thank you.

Technology increases productivity and hence reduces the burden on workers and eliminates the burden of doing repetitive tasks. For this, workers need to learn some skills to stay employed. It's just that the workers should be given training for the newly created jobs.

The proliferation of technology results in the improved lifestyles, and hence consumerism increases and thereby result in more employment opportunities. For example, the industrial revolution created more jobs than it eliminated.

Due to technology, demand for technically skilled youth is increasing and hence more jobs available for educated youth.

Technology helps in the growth of the economy. Economic growth can be utilised to create more employment opportunities with better pay.

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.

Technology has created a pool of opportunities. Everyone can agree to this.

It has drastically made our life easier. But let's face the harsh truth. Technology has created opportunities only for well skilled and educated people only. 26% of Indians are uneducated. How will they feed themselves? With the rise of online business, the shopkeepers are striving for goof market. Amazon will be using drones to deliver the packages taking away jobs of 100s of delivery boys. I cannot agree more to the fact that zomato, swiggy and uber have provided ample of jobs to people. But the time is not far when they will also use drones to deliver food. With the rise of AI in the world, millions of jobs will suffer in the world.

The technology was meant to make life easier instead it is making our life meaningless.

Good evening to all of you.

I think the creating the technology is don't effect the job rather then it. It effect in positive way. We are knowing that the main problem of India is the large population and because of this the youth of the India didn't getting well jobs according to their education but one thing that they can survive in call centre and by delivery boy in swiggy and in zomato untill they didn't get the required job according to there qualifications. Hence the because of technology the swiggy and zomato app like there is in market to provide the jobs for need ful people and also one more benefit is that they deliver the food fast and we didn't go outside for food.

One more advantage is that the technology created a ola, Uber like app in which the auto drivers may loss their jobs but at the same time they get the job in ola and Uber as a driver and the pay scale in ola Uber also more then that of auto. So living of standard will improve of people.

And also the merto train cities required the more engineer to handle the metro system and to run the metro successfully and safefully in India. Hence Engineers placed at perfect job.

Thank you.

Good morning to one and all,

Today the topic is about the impact of technology on jobs, in earlier days no one is aware of social media and mobile phones, but now all are aware of both because the technology was developing. And also in earlier days, we need to go to an organisation and apply to the opportunity of an interview, but now no need to go for the organisation, in my home only we are able to apply for the jobs. By increasing technology, it has some advantages and disadvantages also, but there is fewer disadvantages compared to advantages. Recently one robot can do a 2000 plant sapling in just one hour. We all know about the app we use in our mobile phones like ola, uber, zomato, swiggy by ordering in it by sitting at home we can get a finish that works, no need of going to a hotel or to cab stands. And if we can follow an official page on social media or some another app we can get the notifications related to that page. If we follow page like job mela then we get notifications related to the job, it will help you to get a job.
