Do not worry about copyright - the author of the picture, too, will come to the forum. i>
Almost a week will start Roboforum , which will gather a critical mass of robotics. 1,000 delegates, 40 speakers, 35 media. Their lectures, presentations and performances will allow finally to outline the contours brave new world waits for us beyond the threshold massovogoy robotics. The program is four days of the forum - online .
Just below the list of participants, but first I would like to raise one topic.
Imagine what the world would have been without the First World War? Probably he would have even more different from the one that emerged. Peaceful change is not so visible, but they are changing the lives of more radical. If the Cuban missile crisis led to the third world, we would have said that consumer electronics and mass pop culture is the result of a fracture of the military, not the consumer revolution.
iPhone could look like, and so after the Cuban missile crisis. i>
Household revolution will shake the XXI century and XX will soon become distant, distant past. Some robots are so hit on the brain that will not find it. This collapse of the entire traditional life in post-antiquity. The revolution is comparable only to that of the agrarian revolution.
Take hold of all this whining about the twentieth century "slavery." And what people will face more in this century? With him, my dear. Man will be surrounded by anthropoid robots, they purchased and held by a wholly-owned. And he will use them as a servant and as a sexual obёkty. And it will require significant changes in consumer culture and the culture of communication. Can you talk to a robot? Roman - able. And we simply do not have the appropriate "culture of consumption».
This robot will have the intelligence and decisions (why else would they do?) - But who will be responsible for those decisions? Now every drone priglyadyvaet human operator, but it is.
Military robots today fill the land, air and sea, and with each new model they are becoming more lethal, autonomous and even intelligent. "Robot that you see today, like 'Model T' Ford. We see only the early stages of technology development, "remarked a senior official of one of the companies developing robots. As you know, Henry Ford sold only 239 copies of his sverhznamenitogo car in the first year - and 15 million over the next 19 years. The demand for robotic systems is growing extremely rapidly.
you're not a robot in a loincloth native i>
What will happen in some ni6ud 2030? Fortunately, not only we have these questions. The Government of the United Kingdom and the United States have attended to the matter. In 2006 futurological on research on robotics risprudentsii and was commissioned by the British Department of Science and the Center for Studies in Innovation. Its participants were experts of the company Ipsos-MORI , consultancy Outsights and United States-based Institute for the Future .
This document states that:
Mass production anthropoid robots will begin in about 20 years. Robots will have artificial intelligence comparable to a human, and will be capable of self-reproduction and self-programming. The robots will become a "digital citizens", in contrast to the things that have legal rights and responsibilities. Robots will participate in the elections, pay taxes and mandatory to serve in the army. By the way something podo6noe 6ylo in the Soviet Union - all jeeps and Shepherd were registered in military enlistment offices and requisitioned in the event of war. Getting civil rights robots will take place in several stages and is likely to be accompanied by greater social tension. Similarly, the process of the civil rights of blacks in the United States.
In the study, or at least in its published part, it said nothing about the main problem robotic society anthropoid robots make it unnecessary social existence of the vast majority of humanity. In addition, the economic gap between the robot and the ordinary state is so deep that makes the most advanced robot does not state the reservation obsolete equipment, outdated and obsolete culture of social relations.
Military use of robots - it's soldiers having demonstration value. Res talking about the world turn in the economy, industry, or even equal to the agricultural revolution. With the advent of robots economy begins to grow itself, without human involvement as a production unit. Imposition of a person of their sphere ekornomiki turn it into an absolute consumer, and the cost of goods will make close to zero.
This anthropomorphic robot is fundamental, because the whole machinery of the Earth is tuned for a standard person. In fact, the robot is not a mechanical man with artificial intelligence, and free (!) Mechanical man with artificial intelligence. Toy something for millird dollars you can build - it's not that. It is not a manual assembly golden carriage to a dozen European kings, talking about the Ford T and the assembly line. The era of robots is when out of 8 billion people 7.8 billion say: All are free. Eat popcorn, watch cartoons.
It is interesting to ask how professionals see the future of robots. Now, in fact, the defendants:
