Autonomous robot

On April 17, 2039 Francis Crawford is living in a world where robots are helping humans but, he doesn’t trust them because he fears they will take over. Nobody else will listen to him when he talks about it but, Francis knows it will happen eventually it just comes sooner than he thinks.Francis Crawford was on a routine patrol when he gets a call to go to the robot factory for a murder. He goes to the crime scene and he investigates the body there name was Dr. Calvin Marsh. It had been thrown…

Frankenstein’s actions. There is no precedent for a robot being liable for a crime. Much less a robot shopping on the darknet. However, someone must be responsible. The artists did state that it was in their intention for the robot to ‘surprise them’ with items from the darknet. Some would say it then makes sense to put them on trial because they are responsible for the actions of the robot. A solution to the problem would be to trial the robot the same as if you would trial a parent's child for…

Between the two films there are many themes that have evolved. The film techniques manipulate us by thinking the movie had evolved but in my opinion, Avatar is more evolved than District 9. They are both believable movies, however Avatars technology and the human knowledge is more advanced and evolved than District 9. District 9 has evolved weaponry and governance but the human technology and genetic transformation is yet to be discovered. Us, humans, are still way behind the evolution of…

Robots have been something scientists have been talking about for years with the present being a very big advancement in research. Harvard has made a “robobee” prototype that hasn't been perfected yet. While they are still an estimated 10 years away from a successful bunch, the robobees would function much like regular bees with the ability to pollinate whole crops, communicate, and make simple-decisions. This would be the ideal solution to the slow extinction of bees but even the scientists…

thank you for your generosity and support. Since I wrote to you last, I attained a semester GPA of a 3.25 and continue to pursue a major in Engineering. Within engineering, I participated in a Lego build project which our group designed and built a robot that would not fall off the table. During last semester, I attended all home football games, stood as part of the Twelfth Man; and the most interesting part of my experience, was that I successfully tackled two yell leaders on two separate…

I would definitely call myself a tech and science nerd. I am in robotics and I am currently taking two sciences; so I definitely qualify for my geek card. Something that has always intrigued me is the future of technology and science, and one of the most interesting possibilities of technology would being able to augment myself and /or others. Robotics is something that’s always been intriguing to me, and of course anyone in robotics have always thought about the implications of augmenting the…

Everyone predicted that robots would exist. But no one would have guessed humans would be the mindless, mechanical objects being controlled. Everyone’s lives had become one lengthy procedure. The same technology that gave them control made them feel completely powerless. One operation changed the way humans lived and interacted. One person in particular, Destin Vanderbelt, would be greatly affected. This operation made him more than he could have ever imagined. The change was fast. He can hardly…

In the article, “Can A Robot Join Faith” by Avi Steinberg, she mentions a new vision in which would be the, “the world’s most ambitious project”. With this project in mind the company would inquire a society built of intelligent robots. However, with these robots, they can be a problem when it comes to religions and faiths. She had mentioned that, Sophia the robot, “…making her a citizen… gave her more rights than most Saudi Women”. This robot created overseas, has been given a Saudi citizenship…

In this Ted Talk’s video, Anthony Goldbloom speak out about how jobs are going to look dramatically different than it was in the past. In 2013, researchers at Oxford University did a study on the future of work and concluded that almost one in every two jobs has a high risk of being auto mated by machines. Since of the early 1990s, machine learning are becoming more and more power because it allows machines to learn from data and mimic some of the things that humans can do. For instance, a…

The Corruption The sun was shining bright on the town of Endsville, the only thing that was off, was that robotic figures were wandering the town, the amazement of the AI was jaw-dropping. One resident, who was always paranoid, and would always stay alone in his home, was a boy named Jack Darktail. This boy was the only one in the town that was the one who would actually question the amount of AI that was within the town. When he would walk outside at any time in his life, he would end up being…
