Advantages and Disadvantages of Computer Controlled System rather than
Humans.
Advantages:
The advantages of computer-controlled system are under as:
Disadvantages:
The disadvantages of computer controlled system are under as:
➢ Dependency of Programming:
Computer-controlled systems rely heavily on
accurate programming. If the program contains errors or fails to account for certain
scenarios, the system may behave unexpectedly or fail to perform as intended.
➢
Hard to Fix Errors:
Sometimes when a computer makes a mistake, it’s tough to find
and correct the problem correctly.
➢
Increased Risk of Hacking:
If a computer controls a system, it is easier for hackers
to break in and cause harm or steal information.
➢ Inflexibility:
Computer-controlled systems are designed to follow specific
algorithms and instructions. They may struggle to adapt the unforeseen
circumstances or make decisions outside the scope of their programming.
➢ Cybersecurity Threats:
Computer-controlled systems are susceptible to cyber
threats including hacking, malware and other malicious activities. A breach in security
can lead to unauthorized access, data loss, or disruptions in operations.
➢ Expensive:
Settings up computers to run things can cost a lot of money, including
buying the equipment and paying for people to look after it.
➢ Electricity:
Every part of computer stops working if there is no power because
computers need electricity to work, unlike some tasks humans can do without it.
➢ Overreliance and loss of skill:
Dependence on computer-controlled systems may
lead to a loss of certain skills among human operators. If individuals become overly
reliant on automated processes, they may loss proficiency in manual operation or
problem solving.
➢ Lacks Human Judgement:
Computers don’t think like people; they can’t make
choices based on feelings or understand things that are not programmed into them.
➢ Unemployment concerns:
The wide spread adoption of computer-controlled
systems in certain industries may lead to job displacement, as tasks previously performed
by humans are automated. This can result in unemployment and the need for retraining
workers for new roles.
➢
Ethical concerns:
The use of computer-controlled systems raises ethical questions
especially in situations where decisions impact human lives. Issues such as responsibility,
accountability, and transparency in decision making processes can be challenging to the
address.
➢ Maintenance Challenges:
Regular maintenance and updates are essential for the
proper functioning of computer-controlled systems. Failure to keep systems up to date
can lead to malfunctions, and increased risk of errors.
➢ Lack of Intuition:
Computers lack human intuition and may struggle to understand
or respond appropriately to unpredictable or novel situations. Human decision-making
often involves intuition, creativity that computers may not possess.
➢ Limited Understanding of Context:
Computers lack a true understanding of
context and may misinterpret situations that humans would easily grasp. This can lead
to errors in decision making, especially in complex or ambiguous environments.
