Abstract
It was not long ago that technology and robotization were not of any interest to work psychologists or organizational scholars. The impact of technology on people and organizations was not something worth researching, and there were more pressing issues, such as the aging workforce, engagement, or work-life balance. However, this has changed dramatically during the last years. In this paper, I discuss four main fantasies that are present in our discourses around technology and work, and debunk these myths.
