Assignment #4

In TV and in real life robots are depicted to be humans friends and foes.In real life robots help us everyday in factories at our homes and many other places.With out these robots human civilization would not be where it is today.

In TV the most shocking movie that should me how robots can be foes to human kind was I Robot. In this movie robots were made to assist humans, but that surely had a twist to it. Robots in the movie started breaking the robot laws that the humans programmed in them. The three laws were: 1.A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2.A robot must obey any orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3.A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. Humans were now being attacked by robots.

I think that robots are still growing and will reach close to human beings in actions but not in thinking with emotions. Many scientist try to make robots mock our expressions but will never be able to have those emotions like sadness, happiness and etc. As Gelernter said robots will never have a conscious mind and emotions. Humans try to get robots to be human like but don't realize that we are selves are evil but want robots to be like us.
