The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart, – Helen Keller.
In this technology-dominated era, dependency on digital tech-nologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), has become commonplace. AI, in various forms like robotics and chat GPT, has significantly influenced people’s focus on technology. Its widespread use raises concerns about job replacement across sectors, impacting lives globally. Recent research indicates a rising percentage of job displacement since 2000, especially in manufacturing sectors. The World Economic Forum’s “The Future of Jobs Report 2020” predicts AI replacing 85 million jobs globally by 2025. In May, 4,000 jobs were lost in the technological sector due to AI, with expec-tations of more significant future job replacements. PWC research suggests that by mid-2030, one-third of all the employment will be at risk of automation. AI’s impact on jobs extends beyond individuals, affecting the economy, society, mental health, and people’s creative abilities.

In winter’s grasp, individuals with respiratory challenges face intensified difficulties. Plummeting temperatures worsen symptoms, constrict airways, and heighten in-fection susceptibility, posing a for-midable threat, especially for those with asthma or chronic bronchitis. Respiratory infections surge in winter, escalating risks for vulnerable individuals and straining healthcare systems. Addressing this requires increased medical attention and a concerted effort to reinforce preventive measures. Our community must recognise and address the unique challenges faced by respiratory patients in winter. Beyond personal comfort, it’s a collective responsibility to create an environment acknowledging and accommodating their specific needs. While enjoying the winter wonderland, let’s not overlook the silent struggles of neighbours battling respiratory ailments. Raising awareness, promoting prevention, and extending empathy can forge a more inclusive and supportive community where winter’s chill doesn’t worsen the plight of those burdened by respiratory challenges.
