Thinking Activity:Why We So Scared of Robot/AIs?

Why We So Scared of Robot/AIs?

It is within human nature to fear the unknown. And regardless of how much debate there is around artificial intelligence, most of it still remains mysterious. We can find that recently in the technology industry have been talking about why the potential applications of artificial intelligence could be something we should be worried about. Their argument comes from two different places. One the one hand, they see AI as one of the most fundamental transformative technologies that we have ever seen in the history of mankind, and on the other hand, that transformative power is something we should be scared of and be wary about. If AI is transformative, then it has the power to be transformative both for good reasons as well as bad. 

Stephen Hawking once said that: 

"The development of artificial intelligence can end the human race." (Source: BBC interview, 2014.)

Stephen Hawking also stated that:

"There is a real danger that computers will develop intelligence and take control. We urgently need to create direct connections from a computer to the brain, then computers can increase human intelligence instead of being in opposition."

Here I am going to discuss about the short movies which has some story line connected with Robots.

This video is about the robot and human.How robot is connected with a human child and when mother replaces them he comes back to revenge like a human comes. This is the reason  why we don’t trust the day technology becomes great enough to where humanity actually starts using robots for any purpose.Everything man made is flawed. And an error like this could actually occur giving the robot free will somehow...This is why people shouldn’t depend on technology too much but it will be so advanced one day of course people are always gonna wanna choose anything that makes things easier for us in life. Which is great, but to a certain extent. Like NOT choosing a robot to do a human’s job. Like using robots as baby sitters or anything else to help with around the house as easier convenience for us...We DON’T need to rely on technology like that when humans are the always the clearer choice. They wouldn’t or couldn’t ever somehow malfunction like robots could one day. This could be the possible future.

This is a short movie about iMom.The whole video revolves around the concept of corruption through replacing humans with artificial intelligence. The imom is not necessarily evil, as pointed out in a conversation between the Sam and imom, Sam is the sheep(innocent) and the imom is not the wolf (evil). Same is the sheep because he is a child who is oblivious and naive. The imom really is neither because the wolf is the mom, who bought into the world of technology and artificial intelligence, and the humans who created, and sponsor it. The imom is just a product who knows neither good nor bad and ended up doing evil (killing baby) but it was from humanity's sin of relying so much on robots. I see this as a reflection as when Eve was tricked by the snake and bought into the evils and sin by eating the fruit from the forbidden tree. She persuaded Adam to eat it and eventually both were kicked out of eden. The snake are the humans promoting technology that replaces humans, and, eve is the imom and adam is sam.

Thank You.
