I believe that ICTs, just like many other technologies and tools, are neither 'good' nor 'bad' - their outcome and impact depend on the purpose for which they are used. During the economic slowdown of 2007-2008, many Governments turned to tech-enabled start-ups and ICT-enabled media companies as a growing, but strategically important economic sector. The report estimates that almost half the activities people are paid almost USD 16 trillion in wages to do in the global economy have the potential to be automated.
