Hi Sindrella, automation is nothing but automating things or making use of things to do tasks automatically. Yes, technology has been advancing and robots have already become an inetgral part of our life, many surveys suggest that most of human works can be replaced by robots, yes, many tasks could be made easier with helps of robots adversly, we can also become slaves by depending too much on them. The future is yet to reveal the mystery.

Hope this helps.

All the best,
