Work from home
Will Work from home be the new normal for India?
Getting ready to go to the college and office each morning, scrambling for the bicycle bike, scooty and car keys, booking an taxi,Ola or Uber or rushing to catch the metro ,stucking in traffic seems like a dream for nowadays . Everything changed almost overnight with the announcement for a complete lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Life was thrown out of gear and social distancing became the new norm.
In this Lockdown Indians and people across the world are now getting used to catching up with friends and relatives over video calls, standing a few feet apart from each other
when at the grocery stores or even chatting with their neighbors. The biggest change for many has been the concept of working from home. Almost the entire workforce of the country is doing that now. Never has the world had image the lockdown scenario.
Every coin has two faces like wise this Lockdown work from home have both positive effect and negative effect on the society
The corona
virus crisis has changed all aspects of all life, but it appears there may be
some positive benefits on the society:
Tech companies like Google, Microsoft and Facebook have
publicly stated that workers should feel free to work from home if they feel
ill. Twitter is “strongly encouraging all employees globally to work
from home if they’re able.”- IT sector company can do work from
home
- Pollution: Reducing pollution can reduce both climate change and COVID-19 risks
- Spending time with family
- Humanity (contribution of amount
towards the welfare of society or individual).
- Environment
The
COVID-19 pandemic has caused industrial activity to shut down and cancelled
flights and other journeys, slashing greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution
around the world. If there is something positive to take from this terrible
crisis, it could be that it’s offered a taste of the air we might breathe in a
low-carbon future.
Negative EFFECT:
The pandemic had drastic
changed in every field. There are approx 90% of
industrial work which we can’t do by sitting in front of laptop doing work
online. When you think about major employers like Delivery of items
working manual on machine, cultivation of agriculture field, their employees or
worker can’t work from home
- Industrial Labour:
- Labour class worker
- Rikshaw Puller:
- Peasant
- Small shopkeepers
- Grocery seller
- Maid
- Education system: As of 18
May 2020, approximately 1.725 billion learners are currently affected due to school closures in
response to the pandemic. According to UNICEF monitoring, 156
countries are currently implementing nationwide closures and 29 are
implementing local closures, impacting about 98.5 percent of the world's
student population.
Technology Vs Manpower
Can Technology replace Manpower?
The world in which we are living is full of technology. Technology is a contribution of human being, and this technology is helping us today by making our work easier.
The world view have been changed due the enhancement of technology in the modern generation.Our grandfathers have observer/viewer all these changes. From sending letters across the land to receiving mails just in seconds,covering great distances by foot to travelling by air, from using the gold and silver coins to the invention of plastic money, from sending balloons to the space to sending drones on the largest moon of Saturn, from managing paper work to uploading them on the internet and other such sources, from servants to robots, everything today has changed.
These are all the gifts of technology to humans.If we look around the world today; this is a technology driven world full of gadgets, devices, transport facilities, medical facilities, banking etc. But do these changes and inventions happen on their own? NO, human mind is behind all these technological advancement.
It was a human mind which could question the traditional way of doing things and made the things easier for everyone. All the credit and advancement in science, space , health,medical computer and defense etc goes to the human mind who thought in such a way of things easy.
Technology and Human
Today we are just a click away from getting what we need. Can this technology click for us? No, we all need a human hand to make the technology do things for us. Though we have much today, like the artificial intelligence, translations of languages, increase in the food production, biotechnology, genetic engineering, but a human being is always needed to supervise the technology.
It is obvious that technology cannot make click by themselves there is always a manpower i.e human who make the enhancement of technology in the modern generation
However companies and the factories are in favour of less labour force and more up gradation in the technology. They are replacing the manpower with newly developed technologies. This makes their work easier and they have larger production at cheap prices. Many places we even find that robots are replacing the labour and house maids for household work.
No machine or technology can replace the manpower with extraordinary skills and values.
Though it seems like technology will supersede the man power but the fact is they cannot substitute each other. Technology and manpower should go hand in hand for the development of mankind and upgrading the technology for the need of dynamic world.

Machine Learning is a subset of AI. With Machine Learning, computers are programmed to learn to do something they are not programmed to do: they learn by discovering patterns and insights from data. In general, we have two types of learning, supervised and unsupervised.
1. Internet of things
2. Security in the home
3. Politics and fake news
4. No more black boxes
5. Displacement
6. Military autonomy
7. Cyborgs and general augmentation
8. Attuned AI friendship
9. Conversation
10. Vision
Machine Learning jobs rank among the top emerging jobs on LinkedIn, with almost 2,000 job listings posted. And these jobs pay well: In 2017, the median salary for a machine learning engineer was $106,225. Machine Learning jobs include engineers, developers, researchers, and data scientists.
3. Block Chain
Based on a peer-to-peer (P2P) topology, blockchain is a distributed ledger technology (DLT) that allows data to be stored globally on thousands of servers – while letting anyone on the network see everyone else's entries in near real-time. It is defined from three keyword distributed, decentralized, public ledger.
It can be described as data you can only add to, not take away from or change. Hence the term “chain” because you’re making a chain of data.
According to Techcrunch.com, blockchain-related jobs are the second-fastest growing category of jobs, with 14 job openings for every one blockchain developer. A blockchain developer specializes in developing and implementing architecture and solutions using blockchain technology. The average yearly salary of a blockchain developer is $130,000.
4. Distributed Cloud
The trends of cloud storage and cloud computing are already embraced by the industries across the globe and the next big thing that is going to hit the tech ecosystem is the distributed cloud system. Distributed Cloud helps in connecting the public cloud distributed operation of cloud services to specific locations.
With a distributed cloud model, organizations reduce latency, network congestion, and risk of data loss. In addition, organizations can better ensure compliance with data sovereignty regulations since data can be kept in the country it was generated in.

Most large cloud providers, including Microsoft Azure, Oracle Gen2 Cloud, Google Cloud Platform, and Amazon Web Services (AWS), have a global footprint with geographically dispersed data centers and points of presence (PoPs).
