Discuss the following questions regarding the impact(s) of computing technologies in the workforce. Notes: There is not a length requirement; however, I will not accept one word/sentence answers. Inclusion of in-text citations and examples are welcomed.

1. How can computing lead to changes in the structure of an organization?

2. Is it wrong to create machines capable of making human labor obsolete?

3. The Umpire Information System, produced by QuesTec, demonstrates that a computer can call balls and strikes more accurately than a human umpire. In fact, the system is being used by Major League Baseball to evaluate the accuracy of the umpires' calls. Should Major League Baseball allow the Umpire Information System to have the final say on calling balls and strikes?

4. Kant says that humans should always be treated as ends in themselves, never merely as means to an end. Are there any circumstances under which an intelligent computer should be given the same consideration?
