interacting with the robots. In a suggested concept of a futuristic operating room, patient is brought to an operating room, placed proper position and anesthetized. A holomer is created; the surgeon rehearses the operation on the work station. During the actual process a robotic nurse (Penelope) is utilized to respond to requests to instruments improving the efficacy of the procedure by achieving personnel reduction. However is such a scenario pointing to a future where robots replace surgeons…
The machines inside the house are clearly of great benefit as they zoom around cleaning the house. The house contains an oven that cooks breakfast and washes dishes, and robot vacuum cleaners swoop up every particle of dust. Yet a nuclear event has apparently resulted in the destruction of all human life. For every advance in technology, some harm seems to result. The irony in this story is a dramatic irony , this happens…
constantly proven, to ourselves, that there is not much that we aren’t capable of doing. However, one thing that we - as a species- with our large brains and language, have not been able to do, is see each other as equals. This has been a problem since the dawn of time - our inability to accept each other’s differences as additions…
These two industries perfectly complemented the video game industry, giving Japan an incredible advantage in game development. While the U.S. also had these industries they had peaked separately years, and in the case of comics decades, before the dawn of video games. The comic book industry peaked in the 1940s and rapidly declined as televised cartoons began to take over. While cooperation between the industries did occur, it was neither as successful nor as prevalent as in Japan. This lack of…
crystal clear one. “But, who cares?” they said. “As long as my family and I are ensured – why should we give a damn?” Yeah, that is what we are, egoistic, self-centered mankind. Human? My purpose in life? Well, that is a hard question. Right now robots are maneuvering over the world – most of them are used to running industries. They are the essential key of the production. Additionally, labor like laundry, food capsule delivery, or even a public transportation driver are also a robot’s duty.…
The controversial question of “what does it mean to be human?” has been discussed since the dawn of humanity. Throughout history, there have been numerous attempts to establish an absolute answer to the question, always being influenced by the world and its remarkable events. It often gave birth to new ideas such as Romanticism. At the end of the eighteenth century, Romanticism emerges as a result of the Age of Enlightenment and Industrial Revolution, which was accompanied by the rather…
Rachel Lee Rubin’s book Well Met chronicles the history of the Renaissance Pleasure Faire, a cultural wellspring in 1960s Los Angeles, and subsequent events modeled after it. Through her research, Rubin shows the reader how the “Faire” has affected American culture and our lives today. The Faire is set in Shakespearean times. One early attendee drew her own connection to the Faire’s setting and the time of its development: “The Faire… had an intellectual focus on the history of an era of…
“From the dawn of mankind, metals have fascinated man in many ways. From simple items found in the fire to advances in forming metals into trinkets, jewels, to weapons.” (A History of Welding). Welding is a profession that has been around since the dawn of the use of metals. The art of welding has changed the way we make things, and how we are able to build massive structures that stand taller than mountains. Well, this art form is called welding, and I believe it would suit me very well as a…
such thing as a “perfect society.” Peace and harmony coexisting is limited nowadays. In The Atomic Café documentary, they portray how a utopia is just a propaganda used in wars. The documentary also displayed the true intentions of America during the dawn of Atomic America. Terminal Beach by J.G. Ballard is perfect example of dystopia, that was created by the nuclear bombs that were dropped on Nagasaki and…
more job opportunities as well because despite the constant modern fear that robots are eventually going to take all of our jobs, a study by financial services company, Deloitte, has found that technology has created more jobs in the past century than it has destroyed. They found that rather than making human workers redundant, technology has simply shifted work into other areas, for example rather than having to work from dawn until dusk, we now rely on machines for a lot of necessary manual…
