Good morning friends, I am Rahul Kumawat.
I am very glad to start the discussion.
So, Friends, our topic is the Impact of Technology on Jobs.
In my opinion, the topic is very interesting.
I believe that Technology plays a very important role in our life. It is a fact that humans created technology but we also admire that now it is taking place of humans. Due to the increasing technology unemployment increases and people are facing lots of problem in getting jobs even after getting the jobs, they can be fired as new technology replace him/her.

Hello everyone,
We all gathered here to talk about the "Impact of technology on jobs ".
It has advantage and disadvantage also.
Firstly we can talk about the advantages:
Technology makes our work very easy.
If we will use technology properly then it will save our time easily which is very precious for us in this pandemic phase. But technology has a bad impact also.
It is increasing unemployment more and if a person who doesn't have the skills of that technology then how do they work.
And in rural areas a lot of people who have no skills in it.
So, I think if they will learn how to use technology then it will very helpful for the people.

Today we are going to discuss the impact of technology on jobs. With the advancement of technology, our work has become much easier compared to past days. When it comes to see your close ones who are staying far away from home, due to job or studies, it's just a matter of tap on the screen compared to the past days when a letter used to take at least three weeks to reach India from England. Due to the drastic technological advancements, a person like Jeff Bezos is able to make space tours.
But again we all have to agree that each and everything in this world has its own pros and cons.
The various pros of the impact of technology on jobs:-.
A) The programming language has advanced a lot with technology which actually makes our work much easier and faster compared to previous days where one has to remember numerous coding for simple typing.
B) Jobs which involved a huge amount of risk like mining, excavating, building sky-scrapers can be replaced by various robots.
C) With the advancement of technology, work from home is possible for pregnant women. And now in this COVID situation online has become one of the major ways to continue with various possible jobs without a complete halt on various projects.
D) With the more improvement of technology, the dream for Digital India is coming into reality. Students can get their certification done from foreign universities at the comfort of their home only because of the online mode which will be beneficial for them in searching for various jobs.
E) With the advancement of technology, employees can even meet their deadlines much faster than before, which in turn benefits the organization by increasing productivity and quality.
There is a saying that "If you believe in God, you have to believe in Devil". Similarly, if you accept the boon of any topic, you have to accept the bane of it.
So now I will be discussing the disadvantages of the impact of technology on jobs:-.
A) There are many jobs that are becoming redundant like ATMs are replacing some bank jobs.
B) Many hotels are introducing self-check-in terminals, where the guests do the check-in procedure on their own which are actually taking away the jobs of receptionists.
C) With the introduction of technology of jobs, many unskilled workers are losing their jobs. Not only the jobs of unskilled or semi-skilled are at stake but also the jobs of highly skilled employees are at risk with the introduction of so-called "Artificial Intelligence".
But in the end, I would like to end in a positive note. During the time of the Industrial Revolution, there were many such misconceptions that industries would be taking much of the jobs, but on contrary, it happened that Industrial Revolution had created a lot of options for new jobs. It is seen that countries which are much technologically advanced has more scope of jibs compared to the countries who are far behind in technology.

* It saves time and cost of labour.
* We can see each and everything need to anyone he/she found online this is possible due to only technology.
* When we are waiting in the line for the pay bill of electricity, today we have seen within one-minute pay bill, transaction.
* In the medical field or industry, we can see machines that work on impossible to do possible like x-ray, ultra-violate rays, only possible tech. Mobile and computer is part of technology.
Technology becomes part of today people life.
2) Disadvantages.
* First and the big impact of technology is on the job.

Technology has gone through a lot of changes in jobs.
1. Giving the flexibility to work from anywhere. IT industry was supposedly meant to be working in a safer environment, it was tech which provided the platform to work securely anywhere.
2. In the Music Industry, people can compose music even without the need for musical instruments.
3. In the field of chess, even chess professionals are making use of technology and analysing and predicting the games with the help of supercomputers.
4. With the help of COBOT (Collaborative Robot) the manufacturing industry is getting benefited.

The impact of technology is day by day increased but the increasing impact of technology is also a good side and a bad side.
There is one side technology developed day by day due to technology in this technology using the day by day it sector, as well as all technology sector and an also it will increase knowledge of the human being all activities, are done in very less time very efficient way and it will increase the productivity of the product in very less time.
And also it is bad side.
It will impact the uneducated person, for example, the people is no job so they don't have any income way and day by day technology is increasing they reduce the power of Manual work due to that lots of people thye don't knowable about the computer they are lost there job.
Also, it will be making humans lazy.

Hi everyone, I am Sudhanshu Gupta.
Today, I am going to present my viwes on the topic of the impact of technology on jobs.
So, first of all, I Want to define you what do you mean by technology?
Technology is the way of applying scintific knowledge for practical purposes. in industry or in our daily life.
It is a very hot topic that are asked in engineering interviews. Technology has both negative and positive impacts on the job.
In this time. we are fully depent on technology. We can not count how much we are using technology.
Due to the increase in technology the demand of technically skilled youth is incresing and hence it creat a job for educated person.
These technologies make the work easier in the employee's life. Using technology is not bad but miss-using Technologies is a very bad thing.
Technology can also saves the life of people.
Computers are better than human at computing and analysing the data.
It does work very efficiently and give better result than a human work result. At the telemarketing industry, we can use chat boxes because these can be used 24/7 assistance.
With also an increase of technology humans are becoming very lazy. Today AI is replacing humans in many jobs. Customers are not fully satisfiesd with AIs.
If technology grows. Definitely, there will be unemployment.
So, we have to take care of this. Thank you.

Hello freinds, technology means machine work we can say example IOT (internet of things).
Technology saves the money but takes the job opportunity of people which is bad thing. Technology has some advantages and disadvantages too.
ADVANTAGES:
1. Reduces time consumption. Like machine work in construction of buildings. Work goes very fast.
2. Initially cost may be more but further it is usefull.
3. As I said IOT (internet of things). We can do the work by sitting at home using single touch.
DISADVANTAGES:
1. When machine came into organization it took all the job opportunity of labours.
2. Because of technologies people are not getting jobs or hired.
3. Because of less jobs its difficult for the jobseekers to feed their family.

Good morning everyone,
As today we have the topic of the GD is the impact of technology on the job,
In my point of view that it is the stage of industry 4.0 on which concept the industries are willing to perform there work. Obviously, it is the automation and many advanced robots which are implemented to perform the job or task at the industry and replaces the mankind.
As a result obviously, the employment get reduce i.e. reduce the job opportunity in the industry as automation will displace the things but this will achieve at a very high initial cost of investment and high competition in the market.
If we talk about the growth of industry we need both of the things to compete for market demand and this will achieve only by making a balance between the human sources and machine, since one can not completely depend on the machine but we have to make adapt the new technology for today's demand for survival of company.
At last the things that the technology give comfort work done easily, and efficient way, it increases the competition among the people and hence the new things will come in the picture but on the other side it indirectly reduces the job opportunity and increases unemployment.
Thank you!

Helo friends.
I am going to discuss about "impact of technology on jobs".
Technology intervention is inevitable in any sphere. It does raise the bar of productivity, efficiency and safety to a level which is not achievable by humans. 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. The course this time will be the same or not is a debatable issue. The prominent technologies that are likely to bring disruption are:
A) Artificial Intelligence.
B) Autonomous and near-autonomous vehicles.
C) 3D printing.
D) Industrial Automation.
E) Next-generation genomics.
F) Advanced materials.
Arguments supporting that technological advancement will lead to Job loss.
Industries across the globe are adopting new technologies for higher efficiency and performance, lower manufacturing. Machines can reduce risk and increase effectiveness. This could lead to the elimination of a vast number of semi or unskilled jobs, who make a substantial portion of the workforce in manufacturing and agriculture sector.
Automation isn't just for blue-collar workers anymore. Computers are now taking over tasks performed by professional workers, raising fears of massive unemployment.
Researchers at MIT foresee dismal prospects for many types of jobs as these powerful new technologies are increasingly adopted not only in manufacturing, clerical, and retail work but in professions such as law, financial services, education, and medicine.
Arguments that Jobs will not be lost due to technological advancements.
According to research firm Gartner, more jobs will be created than lost by automation. The firm stated that though 1.8 million jobs will be eliminated by 2020, 2.3 million new jobs will be created by then.
It is widely suggested that workers will have greater employment opportunities if their occupation undergoes some degree of computer automation. As long as they can learn to use the new tools, automation will be their friend. For example; when ATMs automated the tasks of bank tellers and when barcode scanners automated the work of cashiers: Rather than contributing to unemployment, the number of workers in these occupations grew.
With the advent of new technologies industry, experts see the need for skilled workers increasing in the short run and persisting for at least another decade. The experts call for training programs with a new curriculum and certifications to standardize emerging job classifications.
Thanks.
