Robots Replacing Humans In Germany

The article on robotics that I have chosen is about the growing popularity of bringing robots into the workplace to replace human workers in Germany. The reason for robots replacing workers is because often the machines can do the same job much faster, cheaper, and more conveniently. The idea of replacing workers concerns many because in people's minds they feel that there will be less jobs although the general thought behind this article says that robots create as many jobs as they replace. I found this article interesting because I think its pretty crazy that robots are taking over so many jobs in so many different fields, and eventually they could theoretically take over every job. I don't think that these robots actually create as many jobs as they say the do and eventually the robots will be more sufficient and not need to be maintained or supervised as often. In the future people in my opinion, these types of robots will be smarter and created stronger to last longer and possibly even self maintain. As the trend to shift in a more heavily robot dominated workforce, I don't think businesses will think twice about going back because they will be a far more efficient company and the possibility for them to create and therefor sell more product becomes much more achievable. However, this is one trend that will not become out dated but could outdate the idea of humans working certain jobs. This article relates to informatics and computer science because without the technology and correct programming, it would not be possible to create these robots to perform tasks.
