Debate: Should we fight the arrival of robots?
When it comes to robots, different people hold different views. Some support it, while others are opposed to it.
Generally speaking, robots have several positive aspects as follows. First and foremost, they keep humans safe by doing dangerous jobs ranging from cleaning nuclear waste to putting out big fires. Furthermore, not only can robots improve work efficiency, but they can also save our time for studying, playing or staying with family.
Nevertheless, just as a popular saying goes, “Every coin has two sides”. Robots are no exception, which also have its own drawbacks. To start with, they replace human workers ranging from factory work to package delivery, leading to widespread unemployment. Additionally, over-reliance on robots makes people lazy, and there are safety risks—personal information is easy to leak out.
Personally, what matters most is that we learn how to make the most of the benefits of robots while avoiding their risks.
