The big changes in contemporary society are strongly influenced by the rapid development of the versatile new technologies, which especially are based on extensive digitalization and urbanization, and often characterized as the 4lh industrial revolution or smart city development. This general trend has a major impact on all areas of society. Although the development is based on the technologies, however, people have the most important role to play in it as individuals and members of various organizations and societies. For instance, the development has big impacts on occupations and working conditions (Schwab and Samans, 2006). This development provides opportunities for the well-being of individuals, but there is also a risk of human mechanization, and in terms of privacy, the situation is challenging. Also, the old question of human-machine relations and the human possibilities of intelligent machines have become a topic of discussion. Although it is unlikely that the machines will become too human-like, a more current risk is that people become machine-like creatures that do not care about each other and cannot handle each other humanly. Artificial intelligence changes our perception of humanity. The intelligence should be developed to maintain the balance between human intelligence and machine intelligence. Understanding the importance of things that only a man is able to do is crucial (Hautamaki, 2018).
