Technology: The origin of Unemployment
Table of contents
Though the world is progressing on a fast rate, Thanks to technologies, but is it really beneficial for us? The answer to this would be "YES" for nearly 95% of the users!
Well I won't be arguing cause it might be difference of opinions and perceptions, but advancement of technologies comes with major setbacks, let it be radiations affecting some species of living organism or an increase in UNEMPLOYMENT rate.
Recently in my dad's company the number of security guards were taken down to 18 from 25, due to installation of advanced CCTV's! Grofers and Big Basket coming into the play was no less than a tragedy for Street vendors and Kiranas.Though you might argue that you still see them on streets, but in terms of sales they must have seen a down progress keeping inflation aside.
The best example are videos creation, Recently in Aakash Institute, a reputed institution for preparation of JEE-NEET , many employees were laid off, the reason was simple, Students got an alternate of videos with cost efficiency. Those educators have either changed their occupation or are still looking for one!
The above are some examples, you know better that more are to be created, so in my opinion, Advancement of technology should be made until and unless it doesn't compromise with someone's revenue.
