Journal Article 3 (MUST READ)

In Tokyo, Japan students and scientists from many techonological colleges and programs are creating robots. Dr. Rybski from the Human Robot Interaction Group, made a robot that prepared granola bars. He says that this is a very good way of approaching people because what person does not want food. The simple fact that a robot is making food for a person immediately grabs people's attention and shows how much technology is moving forward. In Japan there is a restaurant that has two robots that make ramen noodle soup. This is very amazing because the one robot is a head chef that prepares the noodles and the other is a manager that adds toppings and serve the noodles. These robots also have other programs that when it is a slow day the robots begin to fight each other for entertainment. This is a very exciting thing that the robot programmers have added. What brings offense is that the people that work here and workers for the robots. Not only does this belittle the people but is this the outcome of our world that robots will be made to bring us entertainment and do work for us. They cost $100,000 a robot this is way to much for anyone at this point in the economy we are in today and not only that this would worsen our problem when it comes to getting a job how does someone compete with a robot that is never late, never tired, and always does what is told. This is a break through in technology yes but is this going to break mankind itself?
