AI and Robotics

I believe robots can do what humans can, but I think they are more prone to make mistakes. Robots can do all sorts of things and if they are programmed correctly they can work longer and harder then humans ever can because they wont ever get tired. Robots can do what humans can but I believe they are limited to certain things, humans have no limitations and can do many things that a robot will not be able to do. After all, humans have got us this far without the help of robots. Humans will make certain errors but a robot can make a much bigger error because it will not know it is making an error unless it is programmed to stop so the robot will continue to go on with the job until the error turns into a huge problem, a human on the other hand will be able to stop once it feels like something is going wrong. 


Robots can also become dangerous in the long run. According to the article, "When Robots Can Kill,
It's Unclear who Will Be To Blame", the author says "if researchers set out to build a robot that can drive a regular car, climb a ladder and operate a jack hammer, "That means that that robot can manipulate an AK-47. That means that robot can manipulate the controls of all the conventional military machines as well," he says. I agree with this and I think there is a valid argument there that robots can eventually cause problems such as killing because if they are programmed to do certain things that humans can do then they can also be smart enough to kill, and when they do something like that, who will you blame? The robot or humans who programmed them?

    I disagree with you, I actually believe that humans are limited to certain things. For example, a robot that is correctly built and programmed can travel to another planet whereas a human cannot.

    I agree robots do not know when something is wrong or right. They cannot think critically. Most of the mistakes are made by robots.hopefuly humans can make them this way that they can do it much more carefully and have awerness of whats going on.

    I disagree with you as well , since robots have some unique power whereas human don't such as they can be sent on planet and also they can be programmed to do anything than humans cant.
