Robots being able to know what they should do and how it should be done is closer to coming true than someone might think. C. Gillis believes that one day robots will be able to complete and do jobs that were never thought that they could do. Some robotic engineers have started to learn about how they are able to have robots start to do more things than they ever thought they could do. For example the author Charlie Gillis mentions Roomba a vacuum that will clean your house while you are not there. Though it will only be able to vacuum the floor it will be on it is smart to be able to know where it has been and where it should go. The author C. Gillis talked about how small jobs will be handled by robots so the use of actual people will not be needed. Also, the author C. Gillis mentions dragon …show more content…
fly like robots that were able to build a small tower. They were programmed to know what they should grab and know how to put it together so that the tower would not fall after so many foam bricks. The thought of these robots is amazing, but others also fear having these robots thinking they should be in control.
Letting these robots be able to do what they want and handle what they want is discussed by C. Gillis and he tries to calm others about ideas. Some robots have been made to be able to handle weaponry such as the Swiss dragon fly robots, but the recoil from the shot would cause the robot to not be able fly and send it to the ground. The author C. Gillis also tries to calm peoples’ fear from pop culture references such as the movie, Terminator, where an army of robots head out to destroy all mankind Actually, though there would be is that of these references there would be many fail safe protocols where the robots would not be able to harm anybody or be able to think about it. C. Gillis acknowledges having small flying robots about would be a problem, but that ability to program it to be able to perform flights are currently not available. C. Gillis has shown that he knows what others may think of the ideas, but there is still more to things about.
I believe that the idea of robots being able to do more than what they can do now is possible.
The future is the future and the new development of technologies will go further. Having robots in the field of fire such as the army would be able to help assist them into being able to cause less damage and casualties. In the field of medicine they can be able to find out what is wrong by a small injection of microbots to find the disease and cure it. The author did not mention the enhancements of construction like how there have recently been 3D print houses. The author should also mention the concerns about these technologies and why they should not worry. But other than that the author has made a well written
article.
The article “Robot Invasion” by C. Gillis is a good article describing the thought of how far technology will advance. The author describes the advancements that are currently available and how it will be able to advance into the future. He also describes peoples’ fears that they have about the robots, but he talks about why they should not fear what the robots will be able to do. After reading, a reader may still have questions, but they will be able to do their own research and discover the answers they want. The author should discuss more about the opposite view people have. The article “Robot Invasion” was a good article that discussed the advancements of robotics. People may think that with the advancements of technology robots will one day be a danger to us, but it is in the future and will be handled before something like that occurs.
