Innumerable people succumb to medical anomalies coz either they can’t afford treatment or due to unavailability of the medical teams & doctors. Now
envision where with deployment of any Humanoid assistance, medical relief reaching to people in need, everywhere, at minimal cost, and to some places, for unlimited time in future. This
is just a single case scenario.
Ok!
So how homosapiens landed on Terra. Only theories exist. First the Evolution one,
corroborated with science, and secondly, the Cosmic Power one, corroborated
with faith. But they are not ‘absolute’ affirmations. But still prevails one
commonality between them: Environment. And because of this auspiciously
balanced natural phenomenon, life exists and flourishes. The Universal truth
is, we cannot control Nature, and in future too, we would never be able to
control it. What probably our actions might do in the end one day is, obliterating
it, for our own selfish needs, which furthermore shall never be restored again
with any substitute.
The
concept of Robots coexisting with Humans is not to prove humans can behave
like any cosmic power, but to effectuate the system to bestow basic needs
& necessities to people, forbidden from such care, which do not reach at
least in the present circumstances to everyone, even in the most flourished places, and later could be administered.
Thence,
it can be defined as: Humans creating an
environment for the existence of Humanoids/Robots, with the reset/control command
remaining with humans. Means, not assigning or delegating absolute authority to
them, but programmed in a way to fulfill the needs of the Humans in need, or at
the most assisting in accomplishing important tasks, but never to be treated
like slaves.
Now, the
responsibility lies on whom in achieving this? Not on one country or state but
rather on all those countries/states who could at least afford in investing in such
work to initiate research.
From
basic administrative assistance, where then you don’t have to wait for years, and
just wait & wait & further, wait, even for a meticulous work, till security
concerns & measures, Humanoids assistance would only make the system robust. Utmost what would happen? The Contrived Pragmatism will transmute into Absolute Pragmatism.
Ok! Did
Humans really evolve like Humans? Answer
yourself.
So
when it comes to the values and conduct and conscience part of the Robot, in emergency, I am sure Scientists/People skilled in the said art, would be able to deal with the said situation, like redesigning, and then implementing it:
which alas is not available for the humans :)
And
with the proliferation of the developing minds love for greediness, and of the developed minds for power, there would be an imbalance in the societal structure and when
the basic needs are not fulfilled, issue ensues. And if the Humans can correct this imbalance, as explained supra, then I presume no one would contend for any manufactured specie with selfsame mind.
