Technology

I really love learning about history, especially with mental and physical illness and medicine.
There's so many blatantly stupid things people used to do to those who were mentally or physically ill, to us.
You learn about it and say "That's stupid why the fudge >>"
But they didn't know what we do now.
Which is sad, but it's great we've come so far.
We have a long way to go still.
I also love watching true crime shows and learning about serial killers and watching forensics things.
It's amazing how far forensics has come.
People can solve 30 year old crimes now that they couldn't back then.
I often point out how silly people are when they make a ton of mistakes while committing crimes.
Such as trying to shoot themselves and say someone else did it.
The people in charge can tell if you did it yourself.
They examine angles and blood splatters.
They can also track shoe prints and tire tracks.
And there's not a good chance you can leave without having left evidence behind.
But with technology comes usually unforeseen issues.
Technology is soulless and cold.
Such as a machine doesn't know it's wrong to harm or kill.
People talk about robots taking over and replacing human workers, which sounds cool.
BUT they aren't human, which would mean they don't feel for anything.

I've seen people talk about how the robots will turn on mankind and brutally murder us all u8
I did come across this thing, though.
The Three Laws of Robotics (often shortened to The Three Laws or known as Asimov's Laws) are a set of rules devised by the science fiction author Isaac Asimov. The rules were introduced in his 1942 short story "Runaround", although they had been foreshadowed in a few earlier stories. The Three Laws, quoted as being from the "Handbook of Robotics, 56th Edition, 2058 A.D.", are:
1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.
Even if it's fiction, I think it's pretty cool and I would hope it could work in the future.
I saw some holograms earlier that were supposed be 7D.
They looked so AWESOME!
It's mind blowing how far this has come.
I'd never seen anything even close to that when I was a kid.
And don't get me started on video game graphics nowadays.
When I was a kid, characters were blocky and now you got these new sleek, sexy, shiny graphics.
I love how far we've gotten in this field, and I hope to see it keep getting better.
But technology replacing humans, is sad.
I would prefer my dogs and cat over a robot that cleaned the house and cooked my favorite foods.
How do you feel about technology?
Would you buy a Chobit/Persocom if you could?
Should technology replace human workers?
