Digitalizing Human

What kind of metaphor do you prefer: using concepts in biology or physics? I see biology metaphor is used in east tradition, while physics is used in the west. Industry revolution is an example on how human are being digitized in a mechanistic way. Machine that record employee daily activities is more powerful than an explanation or a pale face. To get a permission an employee has to get a legal information from the doctor. While in east tradition, excuse is being tolerate more. Both of this approaches has their positive and negative side. The east tradition in one point of view is more slow, while the west sometimes forget how does it feel to become a human.
