Robots: Superior to Mankind?
Nowadays, there is a public controversy concerning the issue of whether
mankind will always be superior to machines. Some people argue that since
machines are only tools of humankind, they will always be inferior to us, while
others hold that machines, especially computers with artificial intelligence,
will ultimately surpass us in every aspect of intellectual life. In my opinion,
we must carefully consider what we mean by the word "superior" before we can
answer the question.
If "superior" is meant to mean the knowledge, speed, and accuracy in doing
certain technical jobs, the machines of our day will surpass human beings in
most areas, given their efficiency and endurance. For instance, a specially
designed computer program can solve a complex equation in moments that would
take a person working with pencil and paper several days to solve. What's more,
computers can keep on working for days even months without any need for rest and
no diminishment in accuracy, while people require rest and recreation. Computers
can store and instantly retrieve vast amounts of information in its memory while
people may often forget the most important thing. Some machines, such as a
hoist, are capable of accomplishing feats of strength that no human individual
could ever dream of. In this sense, machines are like miracles that we have
created to help us in our adaptation and reconstruction of the material
world.
However, if the word "superior" is defined on the basis of creative thinking
and emotional sensitivity, machines are inferior to mankind, at least at the
present time. For example, we recognize familiar faces within a second or less,
but a computer must follow a series of complex procedures in order to recognize
even a face that has been presented to it thousands of times. Besides, while
computers have been developed that are capable of producing works of art, such
as pictures and musical compositions, such computer-generated works are devoid
of any their creator's feelings since computers are non-sensate. Since machines,
especially computers, are developing at a tremendous rate today, we can't rule
out the possibility that in the future the machines can surpass humans in almost
every field. But up to now, it is still incomparable to the power of human
thinking in many aspects and is still under human control. Human beings should
make good use of machines and remember that their development is meant to
benefit mankind.
For the reasons mentioned above, I hold that humans and machines are not
comparable unless we define our specific usage of the word "superior". Machines
have the advantage in some areas while the human being holds the edge in the
realm of creative thinking. We should utilize machines to support and enhance
our thinking about the social life and avoid their improper use and
application.
