Introduction:
Humans’
merging with machines is inevitable since there is so much evidence of it
happening now. For example,
Kurzweil mentioned the union of human and machines will
increase human’s capacity, speed, and knowledge-sharing ability of their brain.
The very nature of what it means to be human will be both enriched and
challenged. Humans merging with machines will have many positive affects on the
human race. According to Kurzweil there are three technological revolutions that will cause
this to happen.
Conclusion:
Can there be
humans who are robots. A lot of revolutions have to happen for these
predictions to be true. Technology has proven to be a tool that will never go
out of use. They get more and more advanced every day. The union of humans and
machines has endless of positive affects. The human race will be able to adapt
and survive better ever before. Even though I probably don’t want these
predictions to happen because I like how life is already; I’m looking forward
to see how the future plays out.
Overall thoughts: Humans merging
with machines will happen if the government wants it to happen.

You did a good job! but do you think this is a good idea if the government make it happen?
ReplyDeletethere may be some truth on the idea that technology merging with human inevitably will happen -- since it is being researched and considered -- I too believe it will happen. What will happen to our free will, emotions and privacy? This is a major concern for me.
ReplyDeleteI do not agree with humans merging but i do feel like if the government can do it if they wanted to.Looking forward to is not the way to go because I like how life is now and I know I can never be perfect.
ReplyDeleteI disagree with the fact that humans may be able to merge with machines because wouldn't that be something like a robot? and if it is possible how would our world continue out into our futures?
ReplyDeleteI also like how life is right now so I cant even imagine a world where people are merged with machines for uses other than medical reasons because everything will be completely different.
ReplyDeleteWhile you can make the case that there is a helpful side to it in the medical field. There are so many negatives that can go along with it , like if the government really wants to make it happen, it could go in a very negative way.
