Visions of the FutureRobots, are they created or born? I believe they are incredible creations
born from the imaginings in science ction. They are now reality and a
part of our lives, in our living rooms doing the vacuuming such as
Roomba. The robotic orange machines on wheels are now in ma!on
warehouses, stoc"ing shelves and scanning products. #nce unthin"able,
they are now reality and could surpass humans in strength and ability.
Robots are indeed clever imitators of life$ but can they be trusted? %an
they show mercy? &o they have a soul? re they capable of independent
thought? I feel their ability might only be limited by us, humans. s the
science ction author, %hristian %antrell, once said, 'It(s not technology
that limits us. )e(re the limitation. #ur technology is an e*pression of our
intelligence and creativity.+
In I, Robot the main issue was that robots were creating robots, which
could lead to dehumanisation and for me, I uestioned what it might
mean to be a human in technology(s future. If being a human is to feel,
see, touch, hear and taste, then to be human is to have electrical signals
being sent from our body to our brain. -ow then are humans dierent
from robots who also use their electrical signals to interact and
communicate? /onny was a robot and yet able to e*press the human
uality of emotion through gestures and intonation of voice. /o what
dierentiates us from them? )hat do we have that they do not? )hat
happens when they start to surpass us? )ill they help us, 0ust li"e

Robots, are they to be feared or revered? re robots able to evolve? If so,
are they able to evolve and adapt faster than us? I believe that there is
potential for robotic evolution and that now it has become a future vision.
For now they are limited by our growth and evolution speed but once they
are able to evolve by themselves, the fear of them dominating us is
certainly a possible reality.
In the present, I see that robots most denitely contain the dreams of the
future and they have the power to turn those gments of our imagination
into reality. I have a dream$ a dream that robots will coe*ist with all
human beings, reaching the unreachable and ma"ing the impossible,
possible. They will be the "ey that unloc"s the door to a brighter and
much more utopian future.
2rofessor 3oel /har"ey from the 4niversity of /he5eld is an e*pert at
robotics. -e leads the global campaign to stop "iller robots from being
created due to his fear that, 'robots couldn(t determine the dierence
between a civilian and a combatant or civilian property and combatants.+
-is fear of the future and what is happening in the present leads him to
state that humans will not always control the robots when robots "ill a
human, 'it 0ust says appropriate levels of 0udgement will always be used,
and of course appropriate levels could mean none.+

-ave robots have already become the greatest invention in history? I truly
believe that they already have, because robots can go into places normal
people would not ever thin" of such as shooting o into space using
3asa(s roc"ets. They have also been diving into radioactive nuclear
reactors such as what happened in Fu"ushima(s nuclear meltdown. /I6#,
-47# and the other robots that mimic animals are all great e*amples of
how they are the world(s greatest creation for now, but if those robots
were to develop even further, they will become what humans could never
be and they will accomplish what humans could not. They most denitely
carry the potential for immortality, be it cra!y, frightening, immoral or
totally impossible to even believe. They are most denitely worth the
eort that has been put into them already and they will be worth the
eort to put in for the future.
I believe that the danger of the past was that men became slaves but the
danger of the future is that man may become robots. If humans really did
become robots, then who is left to control them and help them function?
)ho is to blame if some of the robots are defective, or if they
malfunction? )hy do humans yearn to be robots? Is it because every
human being desires perfection, if so then why do we associate perfection
with robots when robots can brea" down, be destroyed or malfunction?
)hy do humans aspire for perfection? If we want to be perfect, then the
uestion is, why are we human?
In my opinion, as robots become more li"e humans, humans will become
more li"e robots and in the end, hopefully when robots and humans are

considered euals, maybe robots will become more human than humans
themselves. ccording to the father of all robots, Isaac simov, '$you 0ust
can(t dierentiate between a robot and the very best of humans.+ %an
