BODY:
-advantages: reduce workforce in industries, help doctors to do surgery and do research
-disadvantages: become useless by power failure, attached and taken control of by hackers leading to the misuse of robotic devices
INTRODUCTION:
Robots are widely used in the food industry and medicine
They have advantages and disadvantages
CONCLUSION:
Replace humans in stressful and dangerous work
The advantages outweigh the disadvantages
Suggested answer:
A.I. robots are widely used in areas such as the food industry and medicine. Obviously, they bring advantages as well as disadvantages.
The advantages of intelligent robots are countless. Robotic machines can replace the human workforce in industrial assembly lines because they cannot only complete tasks faster than humans, but also make fewer errors. Furthermore, unlike humans, they take no breaks. In modern manufacturing plants, one out of every ten thousand workers is a robot. That is the reason why robots are so widely used in the automobile and electronics factories.
In hospitals, A.I. robots can operate on patients, and help doctors to discover damaged organs in patients. They also help experts to do research on any serious side effects caused by the interactions of different medications on patients that can lead to complications in treatment.
The disadvantages of A.I. are undeniable. Robots and other robotic machines are designed and programmed by humans. Therefore, they can be disabled due to power failure. In such cases, the computer systems will crash and A.I. devices will become useless machines. Another disadvantage is that the computer operating systems could be taken control of by hackers, causing misuse of robotic devices. This could potentially be dangerous to human lives.
In conclusion, robots benefit humanity because the aim of their creation is to replace people in stressful and dangerous jobs, and make their lives better. The advantages of using intelligent robots outweigh the disadvantages. But relying on them completely is dangerous, because so much we can go wrong with them.
