The Cradle-to-Cradle design process (C2C) aims to develop a product, as well as its component materials, that can be reused or recycled at the end of its product life cycle instead of becoming waste. C2C focuses on reducing toxic pollution, waste, and redesigning industrial processes in order to avoid waste and pollution initially. Herman Miller, an internationally acclaimed furniture design house, made the decision to adopt this design process to move the company toward environmental…
purpose is to establish a Utopia which human is no longer needed for work. For example, Kelly produces a chart to maintain his assertion, which he emphasizes machine can not only performs better than human, it operates task that human can never accomplish. In order to create an effective argument, Kelly provides many examples; for instance, how machine produces more efficient, more reliable, and more unimaginable methods to solve a problem, to exemplify the greatness of robots. All of Kelly’s…
baseball games” (Kelly 306, 307) are jobs which humans will never be able to do due to high levels of precision needed and other characteristics that human bodies do not have. In addition, artificial intelligence has been already incorporated in machines; therefore, robots will have more abilities to perform any job or activity. Baxter is a great example of this intelligence; this smart robot can perceive humans, look around, learn processes by looking and perform them perfectly. Many other…
birthday cake and Mom prepared homemade pizzas, but it was always Dad’s present that I anticipate the most. By the time I tore open the gift, I did not even know that it was a beginning of everything especially for my passion towards machine. It was a model of complex machine racecar set. I shoot an “excited” look to my father and smile, oblivious to the fact that this gift would change my life forever. That night, I decided to give the set a try. I flipped open the manual and just stared at the…
the self-service checkout line at the grocery store is an example of self-service, as well as pumping your own gas at the gas station. Shadow work is becoming more and more popular as the innovation of technology becomes more advanced. “Robots”, or machines have started taking over our daily lives and we don’t even realize the negativity it is forcing upon us. Americans have become more reliant on technology and themselves, instead of other human beings. People are…
Henry David Thoreau once said, “ Men have become tools of their tools.” This meaning that we have become part of the technology we have created and must create a relationship with the machines. This relationship will help us move forward and be more innovative. We have read Why Robots Will and Must Take Our Jobs by Kevin Kelly and Blue Collar Brilliance by Mike Rose, these two readings have made realize how much technology and humans can accomplish together. Author Kevin Kelly’s argument about…
move along the tape. The direction can change so it has the ability to go back if need be. A state register would do just that, and register the current state of the Turing machine and stores it Turing compared this to a human being’s “state of mind”. Finally the table’s job was to hold instructions and uses them to tell the machine what to do. Tom Siegfried offers a more concise description “A possible rule might be to move one square to the left and write a 1; or move one square to the right…
Sherborne, Turing enrolled at King's College or known as the University of Cambridge in Cambridge, England, he studied there from 1931 to 1934. in 1936, Turing delivered a paper, in which he presented the idea of a machine, later called the Universal Turing Machine, and then the Turing machine capable of computing anything that is computable: The concept of the modern computer that we use…

In 1909 E.M. Forster wrote the ground-breaking short story “The Machine Stops”, it foretold of a dystopian society where mankind entrusted itself to a machine which took care of al their wants and needs, and ultimately lead to their demise.…
