Will technological progress increase employment or reduce employment?

Is technological progress increasing employment or reducing employment? There are a few arguments. Let’s feel the

Since the e-commerce industry has been established, it has cracked down on physical commerce in cities. Everyone goes online to buy things

Since the takeaway industry has been established, it has cracked down on the catering industry. There are fewer people in restaurants

Since the online car-hailing industry has been hit hard, the taxi industry has suffered a heavy blow. For a while, it is said that operators want to restrict chat tools such as , WeChat, , etc., but the reason is not Details, it may have affected the technological progress of its SMS business

, and it also eliminated the Feixin

, which was very popular on campus back then. If you think about the problem in a linear way, it would be too narrow.

As long as it can increase social operation efficiency and reduce natural consumption, these new technologies and technologies are worth promoting

0 Employment positions are not for employment. For example, there are fewer and fewer ticket windows at train stations

Just a few years ago, when mobile ticket purchases were not popular, the ticket windows were more lively than the vegetable market. Passengers lined up with large bags and small bags to go to France

At this time, ticket sellers had to arrange more. Now, with the online system, the railway system has reduced a lot of resources in this position. It is conservatively estimated that at least 10,000 people will leave this position

If According to the previous thinking, the interests of staff in these positions are damaged. Should they be boycotted?

. On the contrary, everyone welcomes them because they freed these people from ticket sales positions. They have more things to do. In recent years, high-speed rail stations have blossomed everywhere. Taking Zhejiang as an example, on average, every county has obtained a high-speed rail station. These places require staff

. In addition, high-speed rail speed The improvement in degree and the maintenance requirements for equipment are not comparable to those of the past green train , so new positions have emerged, but these new positions have higher technical requirements

, and the railway system's ticketing system and dispatching system also require a large number of technicians to maintain

. So in this way, the emergence of new technologies has only eliminated backward positions, and new jobs have emerged. Jobs, often have better salary, some of the arguments mentioned at the beginning of

, also apply this sentence, new technologies will eliminate backward productivity,

, as long as it reduces resource waste, increases productivity and production relationship , it is an irreversible thing

E-commerce and takeaway industries are just two new channels that appear in the traditional business model

New channels will naturally crack down on the old distribution model

, but the new channels have indeed improved efficiency, reduced middle distributors, allowing the source goods to enter the homes of ordinary people

Ordinary people bought cheap products, and source manufacturers have also increased the profits of

At present, e-commerce has emerged a more violent live broadcast model, making traditional channels tremble

Many merchants Everyone realized the crisis and was unwilling to sit and wait for death. They joined e-commerce one after another, and even started live broadcast

Not only that the emergence of e-commerce has snatched the physical cheese, but the emergence of e-commerce has divided up the retail cake

online stores have greatly lowered the threshold for product channels, because there is no need to pay rent, water and electricity, or even stockpiling and labor costs

As the saying goes, cut off people's money, don't scold you who you are! Most people like stability and hate the troublemakers

. However, judging from the past decades of experience, new technologies and new models have emerged one after another. If traditional forces have always guarded the past one-acre land, they often fail to get a good end. For example, Kodak film, Nokia mobile phones, and the decline of physical stores

hinder new technologies, monopolize the market, and maintain the old state. If it is useful, we would not have let the British knock on the door 180 years ago

so give up fantasy. The emergence of new technologies means new opportunities and keep pace, rather than following the old ones, in the future, people's work will definitely become easier and easier, but your brain cannot stop thinking and learning, and you have to keep up with the rhythm. I fantasize that an iron bowl will be a life of life. I have gone away from us, abandoning fantasy, and the future will only become more and more!
