Your turn! Mark P.E.E
A strong argument can of course be made from the opposite position. Part of this argument is that technology takes jobs away from humans. Examples include more cash machines and less staff in banks. In factories, fewer people are required as the production line becomes more mechanised.

Task 2
While there may be benefits to this technological revolution, there are also a number of potential dangers. Perhaps the most serious of these would be that if people rely on computers too much for communication, they could in fact begin to communicate less well. For example, if every member of a family had their own computer screen and smart phone, they might speak less and less often to one another and simply look at a screen. This would be serious because our ability to communicate is an essential part of our humanity.
