As technology develops, computers are doing more and more jobs that people used to do. In this essay, I will describe some jobs that may disappear because of computers and discuss some problems that this may cause.
Firstly, many office jobs may be lost. In the past, companies needed many secretaries, typists and clerks to write letters, keep records and do calculations. Now, computers can do these tasks quickly and accurately, so companies need fewer office workers. Secondly, jobs in shops and banks are also disappearing. For example, many supermarkets now have self-checkout machines, and people can do their banking online or use ATMs instead of talking to bank staff. Thirdly, factory workers are being replaced by computer-controlled robots, which can work 24 hours a day without getting tired. In the future, even drivers may lose their jobs because of self-driving cars and trucks. Some jobs like translators and customer service workers are also being replaced by computer programs and artificial intelligence.
This change may cause several problems. The biggest problem is unemployment. When people lose their jobs, they have no income, so they cannot pay for food, housing and their children's education. This can lead to poverty and stress, and in some cases, it can increase crime. Many workers, especially older people, find it difficult to learn new skills and find new jobs. Another problem is that the gap between rich and poor may become bigger, because companies that use computers earn more money, while ordinary workers lose their jobs.
To solve these problems, governments should provide training courses so that workers can learn new skills, such as computer skills, and find new jobs.
In conclusion, computers may replace many jobs, such as office workers, cashiers, factory workers and drivers. This can cause unemployment and inequality, so governments need to help workers adapt to the changes.
