The world is standing on the very edge of the fastest industrial
revolution ever. A revolution which will rapidly increase the efficiency
of many production processes. Automation (both mechanical and the one
happening with computer processes) will reduce the demand for human work
and release a huge amount of time we can use for further development.
Industry 4.0 has been a buzz word recently. It is about interconnecting
devices and giving them the possibility to making autonomous decisions.
It is certainly a way of increasing efficiency of production, but it
will also have impact on the facilitation of other processes within the
organization.
At the same time, it is said that we are on the verge of an ecological
catastrophe and that we have merely a few years before irreversible
climate changes may endanger the future of our species. Some say, that
the development of AI will solve most of our problems. We believe that
the need for the activity of human beings will be even bigger.
