Will Technology Overtake The Human Factor
Over past several decades, technology has become more and more part of our daily lives. There are endless examples of this happening. It could be anything from driving to work in a car, to something more subtle, like the machines that made the clothing you are wearing. Many science fiction writers have portrayed a world entirely operated by robots. Most people say this is nearly impossible, but is it already starting to happen.
If you place a call to major company most likely the first thing you’ll hear is a recorded message with multiple options for you to choose from. Sometimes it can take an aggravatingly long time to finally reach a living, breathing human being. Sometimes, depending on the situation, you may never reach a person.
Another popular example of science fiction is fully automated cars that require almost no input from the driver. You could also argue that this is merely science fiction, but watch carefully the next time a commercial for a car comes on your TV. Many cars now have options like assisted parallel parking, a very small step from so called science fiction. Is a world without the human element involved truly that far away?
