Humans create robots because they believe robots can help them make a better world . On 4/6, we’ve read 4 articles that Dr. Lee found for us. The reason why we need to read those articles is because those articles can help us understand our team project more clearly, so we could make it faster and it can still have high quality.

Before I read those articles I thought the robot is better than us at everything, but after reading those articles I found out that actually there’s still something that robots still can’t learn from us right now. For example, imagination and thinking. There are still many things that robots can’t learn from us, but if we really want to research about those things it would be cool but it’s also very hard.

We always imagine that if we create an AI then they will try to attack all humans and then lead the world, but the truth is that in today's society robots still cannot do things that we imagine in movies. When we try to think about what jobs are going to be replaced by robots we will first think about workmen because it is just about carrying stuff to a place, so what does the government do about it? What we can research about is what kind of job cannot be replaced by robots, so we can give advice to other kids so they won’t just suddenly get replaced by robots.

Robots can work faster than us because they won’t be distracted, they only will do the order that is inside their code. Because of this, we must find another job that cannot be replaced by robots so we can survive in the future. For example, a programmer or any worker will need empathy and feeling.

The thing that we can think about actually has a lot, but we have to decide which part we should study now because we actually have a goal. I think what we can research right now is how we are better than robots and how it works. If humans really think robots can give us a better world, then they will need to spend many years to reach that goal.
