Robots - more powerful than us?
As Technology is advancing day by day, so is the fear – Will Robots dominate the human some day ?
On one side the scientists and engineers from all over the world are working towards building the best in robotics, machines which can talk and work like humans, on the other hand they are worried, that a day does not come when these robots become more powerful than men and women, thus resulting in a disaster.
While the computer scientists agree that we are a long way from Hal, the computer that took over the spaceship in “2001: A Space Odyssey,” they said there was legitimate concern that technological progress would transform the work force by destroying a widening range of jobs, as well as force humans to learn to live with machines that increasingly copy human behaviors.
The researchers also discuss possible threats to human jobs, like self-driving cars, software-based personal assistants and service robots in the home.
Just last month, a service robot developed by Willow Garage in Silicon Valley proved it could navigate the real world.
I think there should be a Control mechanism, when we are making robots, we should make some thing that is always in our control and can be used in case of such mishappenings in the future.
