Technology is rising dramatically and people seem to enjoy it. going back to old days, when there was no source of technology and wondering how did people live like that? what was the substitute for a T.V back in the days? How did they reach each other before phones even existed? There are too many questions that can be asked regarding their daily routine with absolutely no source of technology.

50 years from now, I believe that robots will be walking around, driving cars, going to school and living just like us, which might be scary for a few, but interesting for more people. Have you ever thought about living and dealing with physically similar machines that are so much different from the inside? It is really odd to think about it in this way, but that’s how it’s going to be and we either support it and be fully dependent on them or we limit their power and stay the ones who control the world.

It’s not an easy decision to make, but we have to understand the advantages and disadvantages of the uprising robotic world. Some of the advantages, it is really time consuming, you can program it on whatever routine you want, they can help us around the house and keep us company. Yes, it’s a non-living object, but the physical similarity will make us feel okay to chat with them specially knowing that they will be able to talk back to us and have a full conversation. Why not? Because eventually, we will forget how to do some activities by ourselves, we will be fully dependent and will lose the power we have, if we let them rise they will take control of all the tasks possible, yes by our orders, but we won’t be able to do things on our own anymore. So would we rather control the world or be fully dependent on machines?
