Discussion Question:

Do computers increase or decrease efficiency? Explain.
- What are some fears generated by the use of tech/computers in the work place?
- List 3 jobs/skills that have become obsolete in the 21st century and 3 jobs/skills that have taken their place.

I feel that technology really has helped in the aspect of efficiency but it also can also lead to inefficiency. Why? Due to the fact that it does take time to learn and get used to the software but once one gets used to it, it really is more efficient. Some fears generated in the work place is that one might lose all their work or that confidential stuff can be stolen. Three jobs that have become obsolete is the job of the librarian, factory work, and layout artist. These jobs can be done using computers and machinery.
