Robots will take away our jobs?



Many science fiction movies robots have to rebel as a theme, it is believed that one day robots will replace human life on Earth. From the point of view there are a lot of people buy the box office this account, and with the robot to enter the factory, many people began to worry that the robot will take away the human work. In fact in the short term, the robot will not steal our work.

1950 The famous science fiction writer C. Clarke once said: "We always overestimate the short-term benefits of science and technology, and underestimate the long-term impact of science and technology."

[Panic from where? ]

About the future of the robot more or less fear, because from all kinds of news about the robot. Scientists breakthrough in artificial intelligence to make people believe, the robot can be out of control in a short time. Artificial brain's father Hugo de Garis's job is to design the robot's "soul", he also predicted that artificial intelligence will reach uncontrollable singularities in 50 years, when mankind will be replaced. A few days ago it was rumored that there is a human Turing test by AI, which makes people believe that artificial intelligence will more quickly enter life.

Some people want the machine to always be "dead" is "silly", but when they found that was not the case when you felt fear. Of course, the machine is not intelligent fuse, the source of the fear is that more and more robots enter the factory.

Amazon is very early to start using the robot business, their smart logistics system is very efficient, and staff no longer have high physical labor, public facilities can be more perfect. However, this move also let almost all Amazon temporary workers lost their jobs because they no longer need to move things human, the robot can do better faster.

Foxconn, the world's largest foundry, but also started to make all kinds of robots to enter the factory. Foxconn said they will reduce the number of employees, some employees will learn management skills of the robot, and as engineers, technicians remain in Foxconn. The implication is that other people had to go home.

The real problem is really to make people panic, from the phenomenon, the robot really grab our work.

[From the current scientific and technological point of view, our work can not take away]

AI is still a very early stage, and there is no way to compare the human brain. In fact, now more breakthrough artificial intelligence robot is made better decisions. Yesterday I reported that the robot can feel "fear", the researchers hope that the robot be able to judge the environment, do not enter a dangerous area for no reason, cause unnecessary damage.

As robots enter the factory, people will lose their jobs on the surface, but in fact they reduce the burden of mankind. People do not need to carry a heavy load, do not need to work in harsh environments. I have seen many factories, the environment is not too good, Foxconn has also been dubbed the "sweatshops" and enter the robot can make humans better working environment.

Atheon TUG robots in major US hospital services, they collected patient bed sheets, dirty plate, the statement of other items. Nurses have more time to care for patients, do not need to spend heavy machinery labor work. From the current situation, robots and more like a human "cooperation" rather than replace everything we do.

In these cases, human beings have higher Controls right, we'll tell the robot how to do, rather than robots dominate everything.

to sum up

People always like to "robot to work" and "robots replace humans" equate, but in fact not the case. We always overestimate the benefits in the short term robots: robots can help humans, but will not occupy all positions.

Of course, we can not predict the future development of robotics, because the future is still very far away from us. Search for "anti-robot movement" on the home site and found no such activity: popular resistance to the robot and not very high. Science and technology should be to make life more beautiful things, we should be more rational look at science and technology, it should not be that fear. (Author: Zhang Yuan)
