"La première règle de toute technologie utilisée dans une entreprise est que l'automatisation appliquée à une opération efficace va amplifier l'efficacité. La seconde est que l'automatisation appliquée à une opération inefficace va amplifier l'inefficacité."
— Bill Gates

Simplified Meaning:
If a business is already running well and they introduce technology to automate tasks, it will make things even better and faster. For example, if a pizza delivery company has a great system for taking and delivering orders, using an app for orders can help them serve even more customers quickly. However, if a business has problems and disorganization, adding new technology won't fix it. In fact, it might make the problems bigger. Think about a messy office trying to use new software; if the staff doesn't know how to use it or the processes are confusing, the software won't help and they may get more errors. So, before automating, a business should ensure its basic operations are running smoothly to truly benefit from new technology.
