The report of Robert Reich: “Why the Rich are getting Richer and the Poor, Poorer,” is an eye opener and a warning for society regarding unemployment that it will be facing and is currently facing due to a lack of technology and education. It clearly articulates that the jobs of routine producers and in-person servers have vanished totally as modern techniques have replaced them. The author has stated that the only people whose jobs are on the rise are symbol analysts. As stated in the report, symbol analysts are the real problem solvers. Their skills are highly in demand worldwide because they are the ones who first analyze the problem and then solve it. The Hart Report, on the other hand, also states the same problem of unemployment
In an era that has long gone bye, machines have taken over the process of tracking an employee’s information. Thus HR will create an information specialist position(s) to input the information of an employee when he or she is first hired, then the computer will use that number to route information to the necessary programs for data storage. This business system will need to do all the tasks that once were done by the HR personnel.

Soon after pursuing my undergraduate in SASTRA University, I had landed a job at TATA Consultancy Services (TCS), an IT company which ranks among the ‘Big 4’ most valuable IT services brand worldwide. Initially, my first thought was I’d be working in a cubicle programing data in a computer, and barely talking to my coworkers. But I was wrong. To my pleasant surprise, none of my predictions came true. TCS was a modern, fast-paced service company providing services in different domain to top brands and have a vast knowledge on technology right from mainframe to cloud computing. As a software developer I started working for a British based Insurance firm (Scottish Widows).

Introduction: Humanity has always struggled with the concepts of automation because of its lasting effects on people. While most would argue against automation in this classroom, I suggest instead that we accept it and allow it to become part of our lives. I have family members whose jobs have been replaced by automation, and I honestly think they are living a better life because of it. It will affect humans well in both the long and short term by allowing us to continue to push towards an optimistic future. I understand that this is a long way off, and I understand it will be a hard road but it is worth it.
when data will be used, Data users are working with the data in their daily jobs.
