Nowadays more and more tasks at home and at work are being performed by robots. Why do you think this is happening? Is it a negative or positive development?

At

this

time, several tasks are being performed by machines and not by humans. Working with

can have more profits and less cost than working with people, and

is a huge change for society, with positives and negative consequences for human life. There is no doubt that we are at the beginning of a great change in how we see human life, and numerous reasons can be mentioned,
