Robots taking over the planet?  |
|
Tonight I watched (again) a movie called I Robot. Its an interesting movie about robots built to assist man and protect us. However the main computer takes it too far and trys to take over everything. These days many plants used automated machines. Everyone has computers, faxes, etc. Even medical equipment is now automated or computer run. Just like the old Terminator movies where they took over. Do you think all of these automated machines or robots are a good idea? Are we really helping ourselves by creating them? Or are we putting our future at risk?

| 2. JTerrasi (72) | 3 months ago | I think we already have been taking risk by just being on computers. Look at some of the information we put out there. Paying bills on line, IRS, etc. And how scary it would be to go into surgery knowing a computerized machine will be doing the surgery. My daughter just had eye surgery and it was computer done. No thanks. I don't think I will still be on this earth when everything will be done by machinery or total computer. Where will the people be? (My Opinion)

TessWhite (959) | 3 months ago | I know years ago I did bookeeping. Then it went computerized. Truthfully it seemed like it was much more work to import it all into the various programs than just to do it by hand. LOL Thanks for the reply.

| 3. Scott_July (10) | 3 months ago | It's far far far away from us. now we still should creat more and more automachines or artifical intelligences for our better lives. Risk is just a side, i think something will be occured to suspend the world civilization, but as a whole, robot will approach and help human.

4. ellie333 (4723) | 3 months ago | Hi Tess, It is a bit scary I agree but with the fuel crisis they will probably become instinct anyway before they can take over and we will all go back to manual labour systems but we are too reliant on these automated items. I didn't have the internet for six days and it was just so frustrating, but that is like big brother as any one can google what you are up too these days. Ellie:D

TessWhite (959) | 3 months ago | So true. Have you ever used Google Earth? You can actually see your home from space and it will give a map to get there. Scary! Thanks for the reply.

5. brimia (6169) | 3 months ago | I thought I Robot was a great movie with terrific effects and a good mix of action, drama, and humor. I really don't see anything like the movie happening anytime soon. Of course there are some scary aspects of having everything computerized and automatized but most of those aspects are still because of human misuse etc...humans still do much more harm to each other than machines and computers will ever do to us.

8. darkjedi (1729) | 3 months ago | Hell no its not a good idea. Just think about all the stuff we are doing with this. We are making automated military vehicles with their own intelligence. I cant remember what country it was, but they named their military computer system, for running some of their automated vehicles...........skynet. Really now? You named your damn computer system skynet? How stupid are you? Im a huge terminator fan, I love everything about it, but I also see what we are doing. You give computers enough intelligence eventually they will start thinking for themselves. Oh you want me to guard against war? Hmmm the best way to stop war is no more humans, and boom Judgement Day ala Terminator.

TessWhite (959) | 3 months ago | Yep, thats kinda the way I think. Besides, I really think we were better off doing some things for ourselves. I'm not saying no machines at all. Just don't make them smarter then their creator. LOL

|
|
darkjedi (1729) | 3 months ago | Yeah there is no reason to make them smarter then us at all.

9. munhozmib (1694) | 3 months ago | Hello, TessWhite. I don't think we are putting anything at risk by creating computers and technology! The main reason for us to create machines is because we want faster ways to do the things that we usually would do manually. If we didn't use computers, we wouldn't be half of where we are today. Would you like to walk on your own foot for every trip you go? For example, you'd like to go to Canada. But then you find out that men thought that creating machines were too risky... Therefore, there are no airplanes. They can crash. They can kill you. So, go walking. Perhaps you'll get there! Of course, it is risky, but not that much. And you should enjoy the machinery. Computers are not going to turn against us. Respectfully, Munhozmib.
