Here some problem or solution of the problem is given in the statement you have to choose the appropriate logical deduction for given statement.
Technologist: "Automation will not replace humans, but redefine the nature of work, requiring adaptation rather than fear."
Which of the following, if true, best supports the technologist’s prediction?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is the second option: "Companies are retraining employees to work with AI-based tools."
Option 1 (laying off factory workers) refutes the technologist's claim that "automation will not replace humans."
Option 2 (retraining employees) directly supports the notion of "adaptation" and "redefining the nature of work." When companies teach their employees new AI tools, they are not laying them off, but rather preparing them for new ways of working. This statement provides the strongest support for the prediction.
Option 3 (fear of unemployment) merely reflects people's fears; it does not support the technologist's argument that humans will not be replaced.
Option 4 (increased productivity) speaks to the economic benefits of automation, but it is not directly related to the adaptation of human labor.
Therefore, the second option is the most accurate and logical conclusion.
