Question

Working Together with Robots at Dynamic Group

Machines and People: Working Together

A chief executive of a manufacturing company is considering replacing current employee line positions with robots. The expectation is to essentially replace a total of four employees with one robot and one employee, only. The time that it takes to finish the product by the robot is estimated to be less than one minute (rather than one minute for each of the four employees.)

One employee is needed to examine the finished product. The employee and the robot work collaboratively. The robot is easy to move and reprogram and is a safe working companion (if it hits someone it stops working without causing injury). The robot paid for itself within two months by increasing the efficiency of the process and eliminating scrap. Productivity actually decreased at first when the robot was installed because employees enjoyed watching it work.

The chief executive believes that manufacturing systems in the future will work alone through taking raw materials and transforming them into products. He believes such a system will create more (not less) jobs and allow the company's machine operators to use their knowledge to help program the robots to do the work more efficiently and effectively rather than personally perform the work. As a result, the operators can put more effort into coming up with more creative and innovative ways to make products.

This company is not alone in its efforts to have employees and robots work together. Siemens Corporation is designing a data glove that allows an employee to control and direct a robot arm. The glove captures and transforms the movements of human hands into actions performed by the robot hand, matching the strength and accuracy of robots with human decision making power. At General Motor's Lake Orion automobile manufacturing plant, a robot lifts tires and stacks them on a cart.

1. Do you think that robots will ultimately replace humans in many jobs?
2. Why or why not?
3. What skills will employees need to be trained in, to work alongside robots?

Answer 1

Answer:-

1) In my view, the robots are probably going to replace the greater part of the humans in jobs. In manufacturing segment, the mechanization in the process has left numerous individuals jobless, since it is modest, doable and keep away from any suit and circumstance with the employees. Further, in administration division likewise, the vast majority of the call communities are using man-made consciousness innovation to interact with their customers and this has additionally diminished work for human.

Likewise, in transportation industry, numerous makers are vying for the production for driverless vehicles. In banking division likewise, because of introduction of robotized teller machines, there is less prerequisite of HR as they give practical choice to banks to work.

In the above divisions as well as numerous segments are facing comparable conditions and there is each likelihood that robots will replace the humans in each conceivable employment aside from innovative work and innovation.

2) The employees will should be increasingly humanistic in their methodology and they will need to have solid human skills in request to work close by robots. They will require skills, for example, imagination and initiation, since these skills can't be controlled by the robots. Their direct will should be moral, with adaptability in work and approach.

They will should be social and be prepared to work with others in the association. These skills are inherent to humans and robots can't replace these characteristics and skills.
