,Introduction
The rapid advancement of robotics and artificial intelligence has sparked both fascination and
apprehension in society. As robots become increasingly prevalent in various aspects of our lives, the
question of whether they will bring about a better future or lead to unforeseen consequences looms
large. This intriguing debate centers on the potential impact of robots, raising crucial questions about
their ethical implications, societal roles, and the balance between progress and safety. In this
exploration of "Robots: For Better... or For Worse," we will delve into the potential benefits and
drawbacks of integrating robots into our world, uncovering the opportunities they present and the
challenges they may pose in shaping the future of humanity.

Robots cleans gutters, vacuum floors, wash our windows, dance for our amusement, make for
incredibly clean pets, and have even been roped into teaching our kids. Suckers. But well before Fritz Lang’s
Metropolis a world full of robotic assistants had already captured the human imagination. Greek myths of
Hephaestus say that he built the giant bronze guardian Talos for King Minos of Minautor fame. […] By the
19th century Charles Babbage was creating machines capable of performing complex mathematical
calculations and Nikola Tesla was showing off a remote-controlled boat. Tesla imagined militarised swarms
of his Teleautomaton armed with warheads. This violent vision combined with the growing intelligence of
machines like Babbage’s Difference engine posed a moral dilemma. Isaac Asimov was inspired partially by
that looming danger and the science fiction tales of Adam Link, a self-aware robot, to write the laws of
robotics. In 1950 Alan Turing explored the growing intelligence of robots further by outlining a test that could
determine when a computer had learned to think just like a human. You make up these questions Mr. Alden,
and they write them down for you. Meanwhile robot research marched forward. OK. Shuffled forward. Or
rolled. She automatically runs home to her kennel for charging up. Anyway, by 1964, robots had found their
niche on the factory floor. The Unimate was the first of the industrial robots and General Motors put it to
work on the assembly line leading the way for human free manufacturing. The 1960s were a golden age for
fictional robots but more importantly a pioneering era for computer science. The Stanford Research Institute
built Shakey, the first robot that was able to understand and navigate its environment. And MIT had its own
artificial intelligence Darling and … Eliza, an early example of natural language processing that eventually
inspired Siri. Show my photos from last June in San Francisco. Oh yeah. But in the 70s and 80s, as the
recession set in and factory automation meant less jobs for low-skilled workers, the popular representation
of robots turned bleak. I’ve seen things, you, people, wouldn’t believe. Dystopian visions of a future where
robots were the enemy and not our friends. […] But in the 1990s IBM’s Deep Blue supercomputer showed
just what artificial intelligence was capable of. It defeated world chess champion Garry Kasparov in their first
matchup though Kasparov’s subsequent three victories and two draws showed the machines just who is still
in charge. By 2000 humanoids started to take off. Honda introduced a walking assistant called Asimo that
mimicked human form and motion. And with each successive model it became faster, smarter and more
human-like. In the past two decades robots have helped humans reach the depths of the ocean and the far
reaches of Mars. They can assist in surgeries and even make hazardous jobs safer. NASA’s Robonauts have
been launched into space to help perform dangerous tasks while on earth DARPA Robotics Challenges have
led to the rise of machines that could help or even replace first responders. These self-balancing or well...
not so self-balancing bots could potentially save lives. While fully functional rescue robots are still a ways
