Automation through robots and other machines is replacing human labor jobs and increasing productivity. As technology advances, even jobs requiring cognitive skills like driving, stock trading, legal work, and medicine are being automated. In the future, most or all human jobs may be replaced by bots and other automated systems as they can work continuously without breaks, learn skills autonomously, and complete tasks more accurately. However, automation ultimately helps human society by improving lives and economic growth while freeing humans from difficult, repetitive labor.
