Do we need humans?
“Why are we at a point in our history when we would want to construct false relationships? Because when we construct robots, we are changing ourselves.”
– Sherry Turkle
We’ve been promised a future where robots will be our friends, and technology will make life’s daily chores as easy as flipping a switch. But are we ready for how those innovations will change us as humans? In this episode, TED speakers consider the promises and perils of our relationship with technology.
Personally I love the idea of having a personal home robot but of course I want one of the Robin Williams Bicentennial man type!
