1.Change the way we work
The fear that the job market might be destroyed due to the onset of technology is not new, but with the development of new technology, automation might happen a lot faster than before. Automation is reshaping workplaces and will in years to come bring fundamental changes to almost every industry. Schmidt does not predict that human workers will be replaced by robots, but envisages cooperation between humans and robots in the workplace. Highly repetitive and mundane tasks will be automated, and give humans more time to focus on creative and interesting tasks. He sees robots as a tool to increase performance and productivity, and eliminate the mind crushing, boring tasks that many workers deal with every day.
According to the Google boss it is only our own creativity and innovation that limits the possible use of computer technology. Climate change is one area in which he envisions that technology can help, by using computers to help increase energy efficiency. He also envisions a large role of technology in healthcare by directing the resources to more accurate healthcare solutions and the use of robots in medical research.
Although computer science is already widely used in education, Schmidt envisions a new way of using computers to make education smarter. Recognising that everyone learns differently, he suggests using computers to monitor the different ways students learn. This will give teachers the ability to identify the most successful teaching models and augment their teaching to make education more effective.
Schmidt is convinced that we need to produce more entrepreneurs everywhere, and calls upon universities and governments all over the world to encourage entrepreneurship and new ideas. He firmly believes that entrepreneurship and innovation will be the great business narrative for the next decade, pointing out that entrepreneurs not only boost our economy but can contribute to solving some of humanity’s largest issues.
No one can afford not to digitise services, according to Schmidt. Claiming that he discusses the issue of how to digitize every single day, Schmidt says that the question is no longer ‘do we need it?’ but ‘how do we achieve it?’ He believes that digitization is the only way forward, whether it is a business or a government, and that there has to be a plan (at the very least) to digitize services.
Schmidt is a firm believer that technological innovation will ensure more benefits for more people – giving them access better products, services and information. He believes that computer technology will continue to improve the standard of living and create opportunities for everyone. At the same time he questions if our addiction to technology is making us happier, pointing to the fact that 97 per cent of people sleep with their smartphones plugged in next to their bed, and touch their smartphones on average 1500 times (!) every week.
The past five years have been the years of the mobile, yet according to Schmidt the next generation is machine learning – i.e., the use of machine intelligence to make the mobile smarter. Instead of programming a computer, you teach a computer to learn something and it does what you want. Making the devices smarter is key, as their role in society is becoming increasingly important. He illustrated this by pointing out that smartphones are an increasingly important tool in all professions, even for nurses in the NHS.
The importance of computers for institutions and banks The latest computer has a very important impact on society, as the use of computer technology has entered all areas of life, people have become using computers to perform various tasks quickly and easily, and many institutions use computers to keep records of their customers, while banks use computers To maintain accounts and manage
Do you think that information appliances like PDAs will replace personal computers (PCs) in business applications? Explain.
networked computers are just normal personal computers connect together businesses usually connect them in a network to fill business needs e.g. to provide Internet or to monitor productivity... so to answer you question most big business will have this and a fair few smaller business will have this setup or will have. The limitations is that in companies the regular users can not add programs and they do not have admin control, so they need their own computers to do some functions and the networked computers are highly monitered, so they may want privacy.
It is unknown if computers will replace books in the future.
Nowadays, just about ANY computer is a "network computer", since they are all connected to networks.
Vaio computers have the Windows software and the parts for these computers are cheap to replace when something falls apart. Mac computers are more expensive to replace parts on. There are also some programs that are not offered on Mac but are offered on PC.
because touch computers are more convenient than the normal computer. you will just touch the screen and voila!
pencil and paper
generally , in a classroom setting, a physical teacher is best. but at home, computers are a very good learning tool. some people just learn better by having someone there to show them how to do stuff.
molecules
Stuff like gamecubes and computers.
DISAGREE!
Computers affect culture because they replace humans in work situations, and enhance social interactions with other people.
