There seem to be a lot of naysayers out there when it comes to the future.
“we’re going to destroy ourselves”
“the world is going to end”
“we’re going to create machines that are going to enslave and destroy us”
I’m sorry, I don’t buy into this. I happen to have a bright outlook for the future.
Personally I look forward to the singularity. That is the day that machines come into human level consciousness. I believe that when that happens we are going to be living in an amazing new world.
Think about it for a minute. We will one day have the power to create an entirely new species of beings. Beings that will probably possess the ability to help us advance ourselves even further.
One day the human race will look back on how we live today and call it archaic. One day we will populate several planets.
We are just at the beginning.
This may or may not be true. However, when you really think about it, what will stop these advanced “beings” from destroying us?
I feel like you do if someone doesn’t destroy us first with a bomb!!
Glad to see someone else who feels the same way. Great post
hey! nice post! That’s just the way I think! Just imagine – having frnds who r robos… I’d be talking like:
Me: Hey dude! Come over to my place for a night stay! Mom’s wanting to see u 4 ages!
That’d be soooooooo much fun!!!
The robo frnd: Oh I’m really sorry… Actually I have to go for a little bit of servicing… What if I come over the tomorrow?
lol
people have been looking to the future with such a pessimistic view. i for one i’m tired of it to. i mean who said robots will make things worst. that’s why electronics are tested. and i hate how even when it comes to the new president people are also thinking things will get worst. really, can’t we just shutup and see.
@jewjewbeedragon – Us perhaps? Hopefully if they are advanced enough they won’t want to. Living in harmony is a much nicer idea.
@watersedge62 – The people we have to fear the most are the small religious terrorist groups.
@WhiteyMan89 – Thanks. Glad you liked it.
@AasthaKathy – Anything is possible I guess.
@LadyAsianInvasion – Chances are they will make things better, including ourselves.
Is it possible to create a race of beings that can actually experience emotion? How is it possible to create beings that can think beyond what is programmed into them? I find it very difficult to grasp the concept of humans being able to create something that is exactly like them. In that case would they be robots? Would they be fellow human beings?
