Abstract: The Chinese origin pandemic of Covid-19 was a disaster for the world economy and the entire society during 2020 and at least the first half of 2021. But the pandemic, mixed with the Internet that actually is a given right in all developed societies and communities, also brought huge steps forward in the usage of remote and automated resources for all work environments. Virtually all companies that went successfully through the pandemic appealed to the work-from-home scenarios, in most cases at 100%. Besides standard work environments, the education field had also been forced to move online at an accelerated, some might even say staggering, pace. All over the world, from kindergarten to universities, millions and millions of youngsters moved to learning from online resources. Without the deadly virus originating from China, most of the online learning environments would have remained purely an exercise of small niche usage – being forced by the context, all education institution all over the world deployed (faster or slower) hundreds of versions of online only environments to continue deliver knowledge to their students. Another winner of this unfortunate pandemic context was the field of humanoid robotics and drones. While present for quite a long time already, they are still used only as tech demonstrators only, and are in fact deployed for real-life work environments only on a small scale.
