The whole world has lost tens of millions of potential jobs to computers.

The personal computer has made one person able to do the work of many.

One large cluster of servers combined with powerful desk tops could do the work of millions of Accountants, as an example.

Computers, automation and robotics have put tens of thousands of auto workers out of jobs.

Computers and automation should be considered a double edged sword, one that cuts both ways.
