Robots taking over the planet?   

Of course we are putting our future at risk by creating more and more automated machines and robots.Even if robots do not do harm to us,we,human will destory ourselves one day.

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)

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.

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

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.

Yes, I saw this movie for the first time Sunday!! It was a great movie.. Will Smith knows just how to make a great movie! Looking at this movie makes me wonder how life will be years from now, I know that it would be very scary, seeing machines moving around.. They are also useful too.

I think this orld would b better off with robots-humn beings are lazy and they are never committed to their work-I like the the robotification of our planet!

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.

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.

Dear friend,
I hope that technology has both sides the good and bad sides. It depends how the person uses this technology and if that is reached in good people I hope more better things could be given. More over the scrutinizing agencies or the law protecting agencies too find the technology to catch these culprits or criminals by more advanced technology. Hence I feel that technology should be used more by good intentions which may create more problems and disaster to coming generations.
