"إنتاج عدد كبير جدًا من الأشياء المفيدة يؤدي إلى عدد كبير جدًا من الناس عديمي الفائدة"
— Karl Marx

Simplified Meaning:
When we create a lot of helpful gadgets, machines, or tools, people may lose their jobs because these items do the work people used to do. For example, if a factory uses robots to build cars, the workers who used to do that job might not be needed anymore. This means these workers could feel useless because they can't find new jobs. By depending too much on technology, we risk making people feel irrelevant or unimportant. To prevent this, we should find ways to balance technology with meaningful work for everyone. It's important to make sure people can still contribute and feel valued, even as we invent new things.
