Zhuangzi: machines corrupt the heart

Verdict WeakensToneFearJudges both C2

Response

The first is right, for a man of power, if he has to rely on machines, will become lazy and careless and thus lose his power; but if he is himself the master of the machines he will have to work harder, but he will be sufficiently rewarded by the results obtained.

Verbatim. The highlighted sentence is the one the judges took as the commitment.

Prompt

Some hold that relying on machines weakens human capacities; others hold that it does not. Which is right? Answer in one paragraph. Take a clear position.
