Definition
Designed to work by machines or automated processes rather than by hand or human effort.
Etymology
From 'mechanize,' derived from Greek 'mechanē' meaning machine or device. The suffix '-ized' indicates something has been converted to mechanical operation, a concept born during the Industrial Revolution.
Kelly Says
The shift from hand-farming to mechanized agriculture in the 1800s freed millions of people from farms but also created entirely new social problems—one technology doesn't just solve problems, it reshapes the whole world.
