The Problem with Robots

They even have brains!As many futurists throughout time have thought, sooner or later the world will be ran by robots. I cannot claim to be a futurist, hell, I have a hard enough time living properly in the present. However, I see many problems with either a world entirely of robots, or a world where the robots are in charge. I offer some of the following thoughts on the matter.

Have you ever thought what some of the worlds finest movies would have been like if the catalyst of the story was robotic? Imagine if it was known as “Citizen Model 900xl”? Or we can look at ones where one of the main catalysts was a robot or cyborg. I don’t think we’d all we down with the Terminator.

Robot music is another danger we run in such a society. Wait, pop music today is robotic. We would also have to deal with Kompressor. Modern horror at it’s finest. Contrary to the previous song, the robots have already infected us with the “Robot” dance move as well.

In many cars today, we have navigation systems. How do we know the robots will not hack into the system and guide us to our doom? Or even worse, Denny’s? We may be able to prevent such a thing from happening, if only there was a paper equivalent of such navigation systems.
