In this movie Robots became a part of everyday life, caring for the elderly and working a long side of humans. The plan was for the robots to keep humans safe but the robots turned and where going to enslave the humans. Some people are still afraid that might happen but In the story “The robot Invasion” by Charlie Gillis it talks about robots and how they are working towards building robots to do the work that people don’t want to do and how much it would cost for them to build the robots and the glimpse of the future robotics. But they’re not big robots like everyone expected they are small but complex and they are set to revolutionize manufacturing and labor.

Gillis tries to use different words to make it sound better and more appealing such as “hoovering” (paragraph 4). He also uses the word friendly several times in paragraph 14, he goes as far as saying the robots would be friendly like c-3po who was a friendly robot in the movie star wars (paragraph 14). The main reason why Charlie Gillis write this is to inform people about the invasion of robots and how friendly and how good it will be for the world. He talks about how the robots will be small and complex to make it sound better for the reader so they won’t think the robot will be big or life size and be scary. Charlies got a lot of his evidence in the text from the news a lot well pretty much all of his evidence has the names of the people and/or companies who have experimented with the robots or who have built

    The book, I, Robot, has a series of short stories which show how the robots develop the ability to think and perform the tasks for the humans. The robots, however, have laws which they cannot break. The laws are, “A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm … A robot must obey any orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law … A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. (Asimov 26). These laws seem promising and allows the reader to think that these robots must be harmless. However, the robots start to think for themselves as the story progresses. The robots begin to get irritated by the human commands. A robot named Cutie argues,

  • Issac Asimov's I, Robot

    While the movie is more action based, Asimov’s books are focused on human-robot relations. In a lot of Asimov’s robot stories, rarely any robot breaks the three laws. The biggest connection between the movie and the books are the leading characters like Dr. Susan Calvin and Dr. Alfred Lanning. The “I, Robot” book is a complete history of robots told through Dr. Calvin’s eyes and the movie is just a part of this huge history. Although the plot of the movie isn’t a part of the book, it surly speaks the words and ideas of Isaac Asimov and I think that if he were alive, he would very much appreciate the movie and his acknowledgment and respect in the world of robotics.

In the early 1960’s the world was introduced to the first ever supercomputer marking the era of the technological age in which it is not only possible for an ordinary person to do complex mathematic equations in mere moments but then share it with another person half way around the earth in nanoseconds. In the modern world the personal robot servant is still just a dream in the minds of scientist. Humanity made spectacular advancements when it comes to making life easier using machines. From the first computer to the latest handheld cell phone technology has helped in the daily life of mankind but at a great cost. By building and creating modern marvels that think for people and takes the muscle strain out of physical labor. Humankind has become weaker and completely dependent on these creations.

South Korea has set an official goal of getting a robot in every home by 2013 and the Japan Robot Association predicts that the personal robot industry will be worth about $50 billion dollars a year worldwide (Bar-Cohen 162). Only time will tell if these predictions are correct. As for now, however, the nonexistence of gyros, robot nursemaids, and visavoxes should caution mankind to be more conservative in the prediction of the future, at least until the science fiction of 1965 finally becomes complete science fact.
