Have you seen that movie "Surrogate"? starred with Bruce Willis. The whole story about future human beings too rely on robots to do their daily jobs, they called it "Surrogate". Human beings simply lazy and unwilling to get out of their homes. Machines replaced them do chores and work on a job on everyday of their lives. It was an addiction, and I presumed that we all gonna be like that? What do you think of it?

NOw a days, I think we are already dependent on machines. In computer alone, we are already a slave of it, as we sit down facing it for hours. I saw a restaurant from a movie where nobody is manning it only a machine serving coffee to customers. It is really sad because people has no one to talk to. I hope the earth will not come to that point.

I hope not too. From that movie, we can see that we all human beings too much rely on machine to do our daily jobs. Instead, we just lying around all day long, and remotely control the robot that represents us. What a sadly future to see. don't you think so?

Yeah! too sad we like easy life to much. That is why we love robots that much for us to just sit down and waste our time. it makes us lazy in short. We do not like to exercise our muscles to work yet we complain why we gain weight. Very very unhappy future to come really for our children and grandchildren.

I haven't watched this movie yet. Is it a good movie? For your question, I think it won't happen in near future. We only can make simple robot at this stage. Not intelligent robot who can replace human's job completely. We will be ok and remain the same like today for many years to come.
