A Draft of the Results and Discussion

There are many results and findings resulting from the literature reviews and research about technological advances. It is worth noting that most often; technological advances have been found to present both negative and positive effects. To start with, results obtained from the research digging deep into the technology of televisions and its consumption by people leads to wider discussions. First, an argument has been presented that children are more exposed to the effects of media because they are unable to evaluate the content which they watch efficiently (Glick, Levy, Warner & Lang, 2017). Because of the children’s susceptibility, the media has a lot of influence on them and their daily lives. It is the perceived realism which affects social judgments, or interacts with exposure to affect the social perceptions. Furthermore, it has been established that television has great influence on body image, especially among women. It is noted that most women believe that actors and actresses have the most ideal body. Added to the fact that the idea of having thin body is present almost everywhere, women end up trying to compare themselves to the actresses, thereby slimming up themselves to appear thinner.

However, the results obtained from the analyses about the relationship between programs which people watch and their daily behaviours reveals that there is no direct influence. The more people watch programs such as those of crime, the less they believe on the content and the less they may want to be associated with crimes. However, reality television shows have great influence on people who regularly watch them. Televisions are also found to have influence on job glorification wherein, people have developed different perceptions regarding the accuracy of roles played by different jobs (Glick et al., 2017). It is noted that the role of doctors is the most highly valued, followed by the roles of lawyers and lastly, those of the police. Such perceptions are majorly found among people who regularly watch crime television programs. The study carried on proved that realism might clearly indicate the capacity of television to influence. The discussion about the technology of televisions asserts that the resultant effects of television’s influence are serious and ought not to be ignored.

Research has also been conducted about the technological application of artificial intelligence and many results pertaining to its influences availed. A greater focus is given to the development of robots which makes use of computer science and electrical engineering for its construction. It is noted that through the assistance of artificial intelligence, the robots are capable of working more effectively than human beings (Wisskirchen et al., 2017). Robots are termed as self-ruling computer system which works dependably and may operate in threat zones. Generally speaking, the exactness of robots is more noteworthy than the exactness of humans. Besides, robots cannot be subjected to exhaustion or other outside circumstances. Therefore, work can be simplified and executed to a more precise extent, bringing about an improvement in both productivity and control.

However, although robots present positive results in work places, the findings from the research outline that they also have negative influences. For instance, it is argued that they may show some undue cruelty and undesirable assignments to humans. Furthermore, since robots may execute many duties without getting tired, it is observed that they have the potentials of rendering humans who initially executed those jobs, jobless (Wisskirchen et al., 2017). Besides, most organizations which adapt the use of robots seem not to consider the effects on the staff morale, but mostly focus on the benefits they would receive from deploying the robots. An argument has also been presented that employees who work in close association with robots may not see their working conditions improve since there is always a quick advancement of applying autonomy and artificial intelligence innovations. The entire work end up being performed by robots, rendering people jobless in the society
