Computers, they say will also bring more leisure, as more and more unpleasant jobs are taken over by computerized robots
The latter, on the other hand, argue that computers bring not leisure but unemployment. They worry, too that people who spend all the time talking to computers will forget how to talk to each other. Their biggest fear is that computers may eventually take over from human being altogether
