Most of the things that once were done by humans are now done by machines. But when we replace machinery with humans we affect our ways of life and society. While we may see it as progress in some ways it might not be.
As we replace everyday things with machinery, we begin to lose empathy and we forget how to interact with others. Human interaction is a necessary part of life and when you remove it, we begin to disconnect from others. This affects society in many ways and most of them aren’t very good. Such as when you begin to lose empathy bad things that are condemned by society may not seem so bad. As we replace human beings with machinery we also take away jobs, which affects those who were originally
do those jobs and cause many to become apart of poverty. We lose parts of ourselves and the world become slightly duller. We become complacent and lazy. We forget what living truly is.
This is why although Automation is seen as progress we are also affecting society, ourselves, and the world in negative ways. We begin to lose what makes us important, what makes us human, and what makes us a society.
