Marshall McLuhan in the second reading basically starts off by explaining how this technology advancement is changing everything around us. The way we go about things and even taking things away from us. In the passage McLuhan states that “When this circuit learns your job, what are you going to do, jobs represent a relatively recent pattern of work.” Basically what I think he is saying with this is that once they find the technology and are able to get a machine or anything that can do your job more proficient than most likely you won’t be needed anymore and you’re going to be replaced, and then what? Which shows how technological advancement might bring problems that might bring to individuals. And that’s only their jobs, that’s not including the other problems that this might bring. All this Advancement in the environment causes changes, which causes people to change as well.
