The robot had been out for 24 hours now, and already Jasper has lost his family from the explosions. All 4 of them were dead except for him. He was alone and the frigid night air had engulfed him in chills as he lay on the hard, burned ground.The robot….the robot was originally a government project that went rogue, escaping the facility where the tests were being run and started blowing everything up across Dead Creek, Farem, the capital of the Government. As he lay in the ashes of his home he thought, for just a moment, he could survive this tragedy.
“No,” he told himself outloud. He quickly shook the thought off, as he didn’t want to get to confident. But he knew he could, he just needed a plan, where would he go, how, and with whom would he do it with? He thought that he might be the only person in the city still alive. The closest district was Barem which was on the other side of the forest that was full of savage mutant animals from the war, so how was he supposed to get there? He got up and walked in the direction of the old armoury. As he neared the donut shop he noticed just the slightest bit of movement on the far corner of the seemingly dead store, then he saw them, Kevin, Rose and Amanda and he knew exactly how all of them would get out of this junkyard.
“Hey,” He called, “Come over here.” They were hesitant to, but they slowly make their way to him. As they introduced themselves he told them about how he wanted to leave. Kevin was a very tall masculine

Jerry West’s article “Robots on Earth” talks about robots that, unlike books or movies, aid people simplifying their lives and health. As robots don’t need specific conditions; they are perfect for performing jobs that might be harmful to humans. Like the R2 humanoid at the International Space Station, which completes dangerous and mundane tasks for astronauts and frees their time. They also boost our health; they are working with scientists to create an exoskeleton for quadriplegic people. Robots aren’t evil, they’re useful machines that have so much to offer and make our lives safer.lives
Consciousness a term explained as being aware of all surroundings, emerging from the functions of the brain. When a person gets used to something they may be able to think of other things at the same time, until a change happens, then they regain their consciousness to what they were doing. This essay is to further explore the target which is the slides from lecture 17 consciousness using the slides Meanings and automatization by using examples from the book “ The Robots Rebellion” by Keith E. Stanovich, which is the base to further explain and expand on these points.

I Robot, directed by Alex Proyas, is a film that shows how modern technology will advance within the years; making people question their everyday lifestyle. In I Robot, the main character Detective Del Spooner, had us follow his journey on questioning societal expectations. This all began from the creation that Dr. Alfred Lanning, who created the robots as well as V.I.K.I. The main NS5 robot in the movie is named Sonny, who questioned his purpose of life as a robot. This Film was designed to have us question, understand the rules and order in situations and evolve with society.
is based on the idea that artificial intelligence is increasing rapidly. Although technology is helping humans in their daily activities making life easier, it may also make the jobs so easy, that the jobs will not need humans anymore because the technology will be the perfect substitute. Martin Ford emphasizes that as technology advances, the machines will be able to sustain themselves and fewer jobs will be needed. This can drastically affect the economy. The author suggests a solution after this problem occurs which is that the government should implement a universal basic income plan. He suggests that the basic income amount should depend on what the individual is doing for the community and his/her education because it will reduce the Peltzman effect. The Peltzman effect means that when people feel secure, they tend to take more risks.
Isaac Asimov thrills the reader with his story-telling ability in "I, Robot". Of course, many of Asimov's ideas provide a ploy to add suspense to the story. However, when the plot completely disagree with the laws which he himself has written, the story becomes confusing. On the surface, it appears that his stories make legitimate and logical sense, as well as entertaining the audience in a magnificent way. However, any deeper analysis of the story will prove that there are several significant flaws in the work. This can best be shown in one of Asimov's earlier stories, "Reason." In this story, the first and second of the three laws of robotics are broken. It is never explained how it would be
How would today’s world be if the technology that is known and loved by millions suddenly vanished? Could the world re-adapt to the lack of technology, or would it plummet into Darkness and Despair? In actuality, if someone can develop artificial intelligences to a certain limit he or she can prevent many of the world’s future problems. In a sense, Mankind can benefit greatly from the further use and development of Artificial Intelligence although some people would have one believe that the further development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) can endanger large areas around the world.
In “Alone Together: The Robotic Movement,” Sherry Turkle explains some of the negative effects that robots are having on our lives. She also explains how they can have a negative effect on our daily lives without us even noticing. I am someone who knows a great deal about technology, however I had no idea that close human-robot interaction was happening at such an inappropriate level. There are many different examples Turkle uses in the article, however, I will only talk about two. I agree with Turkle not only that there are ethical problems with human-robot interaction but also that a lot of other forms of technology might be doing more harm than good.
Think ten years into the future, as you come home from work and the house has been cleaned, the kids have started their homework, and dinner is almost finished. After dinner you sit back and relax as your children are put to bed and the kitchen is cleaned, soon you go take a bath that has already been prepared for you. Your personal robot completing the long list of chores you left for it has plugged itself in for the night and will be ready for more work tomorrow.
