We've been talking about systems. This is confusing. So, is the object of automation a system? What kind of system? The system has too broad a meaning.

That's right. The object of automation is the system. However, the ultimate goal of automation technology is humans. Primarily, if the implementation of automation technology in Indonesia is in the industrial sector, the hope is that it can increase productivity which leads to increased profits.
