Today I found myself pondering the subject ‘ future technology’, and found a bemused/entangled web.
Having watched many videos about technology replacing jobs, I
begun pondering the ‘future’ The companies employing technology, instead of human equivalents. And the costs involved when technology provides the services and products for society.
I found myself rather bemused and entangled, in a web of complicated relationships between society, companies and money. Thus I thought I would share some interesting thoughts.

The growth of technology, really could be extremely positive,
but i do fear one day it could easily be detrimental…..Companies are always increasing the use of technology, factories,
call centres, office jobs etc. Then decreasing their workforce. As one company this may only
create 20plus unemployed people, but on a larger scale its definitely something
to think about. More unemployed people and with less money in their pockets.
Meanwhile back in the factories, sectors and industries employ smaller
limited workforces. Manning the machines, or providing services with the human touch,
technology just can’t yet provide. The smaller workforce should mean less
outgoings/salaries being paid to people directly from the company. Depending on
the costs of the technology, it would be expected that the company would make increased
profits. So a more efficient, improved
way of working right ????
I now pose the mega bucks question.......... Who’s now buying the
product/service ?
The Public?
Well a large majority of the public have no excess money to
spend, and been left unemployed. With limited people in employment, there’s
less money in circulation, and companies find their product/service seems to
have no customer.
