Blogging Assignment 5
My topic for the second essay would be on robotics. The topic itself is too broad, so I need to narrow it down, but I still don't know the exact topic of mine. If I were to choose though, I might write something on whether robots should acquire more intelligence than what they currently have, for instance on the case of humanoids, and the reason I'm choosing such a topic is because I was greatly influenced by the movie which I have seen two weeks ago called "Terminator 3" which had made me to rethink about the relationship of human-beings and robots and how that would effect our future. My thesis statement for this topic would be that we should not dare to enrich our lives by improving our robot technology because of the followings: being too dependent on robots is both dangerous and risky, by allowing robots do all the work can make us humans more idle, and our precious cultures of the past can fade away due to the new future technologies.

OK, the thesis makes sense and the supporting points work. I realize you may want to focus this a bit more, and that's fine. Keep going..
返信削除I think you have an interesting topic; however, like Chris said, I think you can narrow the topic down a little more and specify the supporting points. For example, maybe you can choose one or two dangers of being too dependent on robots, because I think there will be too many to mention.
返信削除Very interesting, I just remembered watching I robot, but I think it might be a bit difficult for you to research supporting evidences because it's about future...
返信削除In view of our conversation at the end of class on Monday, are you considering a research question such as, "Is creating artificial life in the form of humanoid robots usurping the role of God?"
