New developments in technology (specifically computers) replace tasks once done by humans. However, they are constantly creating new ones every day.

For what was once done by explorers and expeditioners, is now done via satelite.

In turn; engineers, scientists, astronomers, mathematicians, etc. have found employment through these break throughs.

in a nutshell, a single computer can routinely perform the tasks of numerous human minds, and generally with much higher efficiency.

Sometimes computers take over jobs that were done by people. Take a simple job like a typing the same letter to ten people. Before computers, every letter was typed manually by a person at a typewriter, and every copy had to be typed to each of the ten people. With the invention of computers, one person could set up a mail-merge document - to automatically replace each person's details with the next. This saved loads of time, as the operation could be done in minutes.
