Will artificial intelligence devices become human’s best friend? YuMi is no ordinary streamline robotic machinery. According to ABB, “it is the first truly collaborative dual-arm industrial robot” (para. 2), this statement suggests that factories may someday erase the safety lines between human employees and machineries. Equipped with the state of the art artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, YuMi is able to intuitively interact with human (Kirchner et al., 2015) making it possible for…

anything. They leave robots to do their work for them, this even means leaving the Earth they have destroyed and making robots clean it up for hundreds of years. Humans showed no care for the planet while they were on Earth and it became an inhabitable landfill. The outcome would have been very different if people tried to do their part as a person on Earth and help with keeping it clean. Instead of doing all the things humans could have done to help the Earth they left it up to robots. That…

That reality has changed, Neil deGrasse Tyson points out: “With regard to robots, in the early days of robots people said, 'Oh, let 's build a robot ' and what 's the first thought? You make a robot look like a human and do human things. That 's so 1950s. We are so past that.” Furthermore, now robots are machines with sufficient intelligence to perform tasks under human supervision, which are too highly precise, dangerous, or laborious…

(2001 film) by Steven Spielberg, and I, Robot (2004 film) by Alex Proyas, lastly the documentary titled, Rise of Machines: Documentary on the Future of Human Like Robots. All these videos have one thing in common, they are all trying to send an important message. Humans need to start educating ourselves and understand the ethical implications and consequences of robotic technology. Throughout our research on new technologies, we learned that the autonomous robot technology is developing rapidly…

Last month, I saw the movie Ex Machina, which shows a robot manipulating easily a human. It brings reflexions about the actual AI technology in progress. I think scientists are too much in a hurry to test their "super-humans" projects. Artificial intelligence does not have a place in today’s society. Certainly not yet. First and foremost, AI technology goes against human values, such as truth, simplicity and respect of the human being. We shouldn't include AI machines in our society, because…

Robots and Ethics The use of robots and robotics in modern society as well as in the military, industrial, and healthcare fields is a highly debatable topic. There are many positive uses for robotics however there are also some very ethical dilemmas. This paper will discuss the pros and cons of using robotic technology through the military, industrial, healthcare, and everyday society. The first field that will be discussed is the industrial field. Robotic technology has greatly increased the…

My imagination always runs wild when I think about Robotics. I loved working on our Ten80 car as well, because we use cars in our everyday life. What a perfect way to figure out how your car at home works and then challenge its limits. I did like the drawings to engineering TEN80, it let me explore the insides of a vehicle and help me better understand it. It encourages me to push the limits on how far my vehicle can go and how fast. Also exploring where my limits reach its maximum. It…

Author Alan Bloch, in his short story “Men Are Different,” projects a view of a dystopian world where humans are extinct. Initially it seems as if a robot just wants to understand more about humans. Though, a closer look reveals the consequences of acting without knowledge. Bloch’s purpose for writing this story is to raise awareness for mental illness, and show the effects we have on the mentally ill when we act without knowledge. Initially we don’t know if this is a girl not knowing about her…

my first language is not English. The next task given to my team was to build a Lego robot. The assembling instruction was so simple and easy to understand that we could work together and made it without any errors. To enhance work efficiency, our team decided to facilitate to share an assembling work, which I am glad to have done because we could make the robot faster than the other teams. After building the robot, we were given the several programing tasks, which were getting harder and harder…

In the article “Better than Human: Why Robots will and Must take our Jobs” by Kevin Kelly states that automation is and will continue replacing all kinds of jobs as well as generating new ones in areas never imagined. Humans’ replacement from the workplace started two hundred years ago when the first wave of automation came out resulting in 1 percent of unemployment and hundreds of professions in new fields. Currently, industrialization develops on an extensive scale and plays a significant role…
