Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, it is very much true that technology is constantly changing many aspects of our lives, including the demand for employees. But machines can't replace humans totally in all aspects of work and life. Although machines are fast, accurate, speedy, always available, can't take sick leaves, BUT the main concern is that whether they can make logical reasoning based on the judgement, past experiences and heuristics which ONLY humans have. Machine cant decide anything more and extra than that which has been fed into it. Machine can't decide that if we were successful in launching iPad in Indonesian market, we will also be successful in launching the same product in any other same market having same characteristics. Therefore, it will be human who can decide and visualize it fully and completely. Therefore, We just need to learned how to be more focused at our work, how to be more fast and accurate, otherwise, we human are much and far better than the machines. Machine can' help Coca Cola in making a strategic move related decision, it can't suggest what new products to launch and then how to look for consumers preferences and trends, but we humans can.
