How is Artificial Intelligence impacting the modern job sector?

How is Artificial Intelligence impacting the modern job sector? Artificial intelligence (AI) is already having a significant impact on the modern job sector and is expected to have an even greater impact in the future. Here are some ways AI is affecting the job market: Automation of repetitive tasks: AI can automate tasks that are repetitive and time-consuming, such as data entry, customer service inquiries, and manufacturing processes. This automation can increase productivity and efficiency while reducing the need for human workers in those specific roles. New job creation: AI technology has created new jobs in fields like data science, machine learning, and robotics. These roles require specific skills and expertise that are currently in high demand. Elimination of certain jobs: While AI has created new jobs, it has also led to the elimination of certain jobs that are more routine in nature. For example, many administrative and clerical roles have been automated, leading to a decre...

Shaheed-i-Azam Sardar Udham Singh | Jallianwala Bagh Massacre

Image
Shaheed-i-Azam Sardar Udham Singh Udham Singh, popularly known as Shaheed-i-Azam Sardar Udham Singh, was an independent revolutionary of India’s freedom struggle movement. He was born on 26 December 1899 at Sunam, a tehsil in Sangrur district in the Indian state of Punjab. Udham Singh was a member of the Ghadar Party, an international political organization created with the goal of eliminating British authority from India. He had closely observed the massacre in Amritsar in 1919 and is best known for his role in the assassination of Michael O'Dwyer at Caxton Hall, London on 13 March 1940.  Michael O'Dwyer was the then lieutenant governor of Punjab at the time of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre in Amritsar. Reginald Dyer's actions in Jallianwala Bagh were validated by O'Dwyer, who stated that he believed Dyer's order to shoot at the crowd was correct. In retribution for the massacre, Indian revolutionary Udham Singh assassinated O'Dwyer in 1940 at Caxton Hall in We...

The Problem of Unemployment in India

Amongst several hurdles in the way of becoming a developed country, unemployment is the major challenge before India. Numerous economists and theorists have defined unemployment in different ways by considering the multi-dimensional factors of this growing problem. A very common and randomly observed meaning of unemployment clearly states a situation where eligible people willing to work and seeking better employment opportunities fail to get the same.  However, it can be broadly classified into two sectors only which encompass all the other aforementioned sectors discussed previously. These two fundamental infrastructural sectors of our economy are 1. Production Sector 2. Service Sector.  However, unemployment can be better classified in several different categories like cyclical unemployment, frictional unemployment, seasonal unemployment, open unemployment, and others of relevant nature. Before discussing the depth of this emerging economic problem of our country, let's...

कोविड-19 महामारी तथा मध्यम वर्गीय छात्रों के सामने वित्तीय समस्या

COVID-19 महामारी के इस विकट समय ने मानव संसाधनों और आर्थिक गतिविधियों को बुरी तरह प्रभावित किया है। इस विपरीत समय में, मध्यम वर्गीय समाज से आने वाले छात्रों को कमरे के किराए, उनके कॉलेज की फीस और उसी के लिए आवश्यक अन्य संसाधनों के बारे में विचार कर निराशा उत्पन्न होती है। समस्या यह है कि कई छात्र अपने संबंधित गृहनगर की ओर बढ़ गए हैं जो पहले अपनी पढ़ाई जारी रखने के लिए शहरों में किराए के कमरों में रहते थे। हालांकि वे अपने किराए के कमरे में नहीं रह रहे हैं, उन्हें किराए का भुगतान करना होगा। इसके अलावा, छात्रों के लिए कॉलेज और स्कूलों की फीस कुछ अन्य प्रमुख चिंताएं हैं। चूंकि वर्तमान समय के दौरान कोई आय का स्रोत नहीं है, इसलिए उनके लिए किराए के कमरे और कॉलेज की फीस के साथ-साथ उनके बकाये का भुगतान करना बहुत मुश्किल है। इसके लिए, सरकार को या तो सब्सिडी देनी चाहिए या मकान मालिकों और शैक्षणिक संस्थानों को बकाया में कटौती करने के लिए कहना चाहिए। इस कठोर समय के दौरान, कई परिवारों के लिए राजस्व सृजन का कोई स्रोत न होने पर जीवित रहना और दिन-प्रतिदिन के खर्च संभालना तक बहुत मुश्किल हो गया है...

Middle Class Society & Students Problems amidst COVID-19

This unprecedented time of COVID-19 pandemic has badly affected the human resources and economic activities. Along with these harms, the students hailing from the middle class society are immensely depressed about the room rents, their college fees, and other resources needed for the same. The problem is that many students have moved towards their respective hometowns who earlier were used to live in rented rooms in cities to continue their studies. Although they are not living in their rented rooms, they would have to pay the rent. Besides it, college and schools fee are some other major concerns for students. As there is no revenue generation during present time, it's very difficult for them to pay their dues of rented rooms and college fee as well. For this, the government should either subsidize it or ask the landlords and educational institutions to cut the dues. We can't afford it. During this harsh time, it has become very difficult for many families to even surviv...

India & the Current Scenario

India & the Present Circumstances India is just a noun used for a landmass, if there is something that gives a distinct identity to this country and makes the Indianness of India meaningful, then they are the residents of this country, its culture, civilization, and the incredible power of unity in diversity. Despite this, people are being fought among themselves, bigotry is such that people do not see anything other than themselves. If a mutual bond is formed between those by whom people are being pushed into this fire,, then this problem can be solved, but what difference does it make to them. Till today I did not understand who could benefit from doing this and how. Whatever is happening in the country, who will benefit from it, it is not known, but its bad effect is being seen all over the country, needless to say, because we are all seeing its ill effects in our personal lives. It only means that as the ocean is formed by a drop, just like this, this huge country has been...

भारत - मेरा देश महान है....!!!

भारत एक भू-भाग के लिए प्रयुक्त मात्र एक संज्ञा है, अगर कुछ ऐसा है जो इस देश को एक अलग पहचान देता है और भारत की भारतीयता को सार्थक करता है तो वो हैं इस देश के वासी, यहाँ की संस्कृति, सभ्यता, और विविधता में एकता की शक्ति। बावजूद इसके, लोगों को आपस में लड़ाया जा रहा है, कट्टरता तो कुछ इस तरह समायी है की लोगों को अपने सिवाय कुछ और दिखता ही नहीं। जिनके द्वारा लोगों को इस आग में धकेला जा रहा है, अगर उनके बीच आपसी ताल-मेल बन जाये तो इस समस्या का हल निकाला जा सकता है, लेकिन इससे उन्हें क्या फर्क पड़ता है। मुझे तो आज तक ये समझ नहीं आया की ऐसा करने से किसका और किस प्रकार से फ़ायदा हो सकता है। जो कुछ भी हो रहा है देश में, इससे किसको लाभ मिलेगा ये तो नहीं पता, पर इसका बुरा असर पूरे देश में देखने को मिल रहा है, कहने की आवश्यकता नहीं है क्योंकि हम सभी अपने निजी जीवन में इसके दुष्परिणाम देख रहे हैं। तात्पर्य सिर्फ इतना है की जैसे बूँद-बूँद से सागर बनता है ठीक कुछ इसी प्रकार इस भू-भाग पर निवास करने वाले प्रत्येक व्यक्ति को जोड़कर इस विशाल भारत देश का निर्माण हुआ है। व्यक्ति-विशेष की गतिविधि संपू...

समय के साथ बदलता वर्तमान परिदृश्य - रचनात्मक सृजन

महापुरुष और वर्तमान परिदृश्य -  'महापुरुष' - एक ऐसा शब्द जो स्वयं में पूर्णतः अलंकृत है और जिसे परिभाषित करने के लिए किसी व्याख्यान की आवश्यकता नहीं। परंतु न जाने क्यों ऐसा प्रतीत होता है जैसे यह शब्द और इसकी गरिमा का मान रखने वाले व्यक्तित्व सिर्फ पौराणिक एवं काल्पनिक कथाओं और इतिहास के पन्नों तक ही सिमट कर रह गए हैं............!!! वस्तुतः विश्व में आज भी ऐसी कई विलक्षण प्रतिभाएं हैं जिन्होंने अपने वजूद का परिचय दिया है और यह भी सिद्ध कर दिखाया की वे भी 'महापुरुष' कहलाने के अधिकारी हैं........... लेकिन अगर इस बात को वर्तमान परिदृश्य से संदर्भित किया जाए तो ये कभी इज़ाज़त नहीं देगा...........  क्यों? ..... क्योंकि इसके दो कारण हो सकते हैं..... पहला यह कि शायद अब महापुरुष रह ही नहीं गए हैं, लेकिन ऐसा नहीं है.......................और दूसरा यह की मनुष्य की खुद को सर्वश्रेष्ठ (I am the best) मानने वाली सोच, स्वाभिमान की असीम पराकाष्ठा, और निज स्वार्थ ने कुछ ऐसा जकड़ लिया है की वह न तो खुद आगे जा सकता है और न दूसरे को जाने दे सकता है..... हाँ, एक नई प्रवृत्ति ने ...
