Is automation good or bad, that is the question. For context, let us think in programming context of a B tree. Google seems to have created oversight of systems, processes and jobs to be managed by more automation with other systems, processes and jobs. System A manages its child systems B, which in turn manages its own child systems C and so on. Now the question becomes, who manages the system A and its activities? Automation of the entire tree is as good as the starting node. Be mindful and make use of automation only of systems that will not be the owner of your business demise. Humans are and should always be the owner of the starting process. Without that governance model, you get google with 5 hours of down time or worst in the near future.
