Is our reliance on robotics a good thing? by https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf en-us 2018-04-20 10:44:44 UTC 2021-07-10 02:49:44 UTC hello@padlet.com Pradeep Gupta A/L Niriender Kumar bm16110034 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/253763969 In my opinion,i would like to say that relying in robots is a really good thing.First,it can make our work more efficient and faster to be compeleted.Repetitive or physically difficult to do can be done by robots.For example,exoskeleton created by Korean scientist allow workers in heavy industries to have super strength to carry heavy materials.Not only that,robots are also being used in the automotive industries to assemble and create car parts.These robots can reduce the amount of time in completing the work.]]> 2018-04-20 10:46:27 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/253763969 Lee Miao lynn BM16110030 bm16110030 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/253874855 I agree that the introduction of the robot can increase the efficiency of work but on the same time it causes decrease job opportunity for the low-skilled workers for example waiter. Nowadays some restaurant in the big city already start using machine to take orders and serve without having any waiters in the restaurant.Customer just order with their mobile phone and pay using their credit cards or online banking without talking to anyone.Even Mcdonald's already start introducing the self-service kiosk that customer can walk up to order without talking to human cashier.]]> 2018-04-20 15:25:08 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/253874855 Lee Miao Lynn BM16110030 bm16110030 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/253881329 The reliance to robotics hence indirectly can cause lack of face-to-face human interaction when everything can be done without communicating. People are too dependent on the robotics that they forget the basic thing like love and caring to others. Eveything is in a way too mechanize and people are no longer concern about what is happening in the surrounding.

However on the same time it is lack of creativity. Everything is doing in the same way same process that it is a way too boring in an artistic context.Human are getting too rely of the robots that they cannot survive if the machine is run out of order one day.Everything will be in a mess and no solution can be come up to solve the problem when human being too dependent on the robotics.]]> 2018-04-20 15:47:56 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/253885530 Pradeep Gupta A/L Niriender Kumar bm16110034 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254057562 Pradeep Gupta A/L Niriender Kumar                                         Yes you have a point there Miao Lynn.Robots do have their own disadvantage like you have stated already.However,i would like to disagree with you.I am really positive that robots can bring more advantage that disadvantage.This can be seen in medical field..As we all know,robots are not being incorporated in the management and treatment of patients.Not only that,robots are also being used to diagnose patients.For example,Malaysian researchers were able to invent an AI stethoscopes that are able to diagnose patients with heart problems.With this,we can drastically reduce the time taken for doctors to do physical examination such as listening for murmurs which can be very difficult.With this,our very own researchers have modified and replace the traditional stethoscope that had been used since 200 years ago]]> 2018-04-21 15:06:50 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254057562 bm16110034 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254061415 Pradeep Gupta A/L Niriender Kumar                                        There are also invention of exoskeleton that had been used to help those with spinal cord injury.As all of us have known,spinal cord injury are one of the worst injury ever because injury to this particular structure can cause permanent paralysis to the patients.Damage to spinal cord are irreversible and currently there are no cures for it.Exoskeleton allow these kind of patients to walk independently.]]> 2018-04-21 15:55:54 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254061415 marion_wan https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254102870 2018-04-22 05:16:33 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254102870 marion_wan https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254102871 2018-04-22 05:16:34 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254102871 marion_wan https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254103412 Wan Yan Ru BM16110031
    From my point of view, robotics invention has its pros and cons. The main benefit of it is making the productions to be effective. In other words, it allows a large quantity of products being produced in a short period of time. Therefore, it indirectly provides convenience to our daily lives. However, over-dependence on it causes humans to lose their daily survival skills such as socialization, communication and interaction. Can you imagine what if a person could not handling his or her washings in manual. Furthermore, paralysed patients could rely on physiotherapy to be back to their normal lives. Reliance on exoskeleton will not fully recover them and drag their determination to be independent. Thus, I strongly believe that robotics would probably a good thing if people use it wisely but not over-reliant on it.]]> 2018-04-22 05:28:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254103412 marion_wan https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254103425 2018-04-22 05:29:03 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254103425 marion_wan https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254103524 2018-04-22 05:32:26 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254103524 bm16110034 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254116448 Pradeep Gupta A/L Niriender Kumar                                            I would like to disagree with you,Yan Ru.First of all,the paralysed patients that I mentioned are due to damage to spinal cord,which all of us know,cannot be treated at all.The only thing the family members are able to do is to give their supports and help him in every aspect.But,with the introduction of exoskeleton,the patients do not need to depend on their family members to carry out their daily activities]]> 2018-04-22 09:14:21 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254116448 bm16110035 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254139982 2018-04-22 14:21:04 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254139982 bm16110035 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254139986 2018-04-22 14:21:05 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254139986 bm16110035 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254139988 2018-04-22 14:21:06 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254139988 bm16110063 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254273378 2018-04-23 07:51:50 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254273378 bm16110063 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254273394 2018-04-23 07:51:54 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254273394 bm16110030 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254702866 2018-04-24 07:12:27 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254702866 bm16110030 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254702872 2018-04-24 07:12:30 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254702872 bm16110030 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254702880 2018-04-24 07:12:31 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254702880 bm16110030 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254703174 Lee Miao Lynn                                                               I agree with pradeep. The robotics really did a great job in medical context by helping the paralysed patient to recover by having introduction of exoskeleton.It is a ace of the technology that help these patients to gain hope and stand up again.As we know paralysed patient need to be recover gradually and the physiotherapy process usually is long. Only by seeing gradual improvent with the aid of the technology helps them to continue their determination in the long process. ]]> 2018-04-24 07:13:52 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254703174 bm16110030 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254766521 2018-04-24 11:37:01 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254766521 bm16110030 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254766529 2018-04-24 11:37:03 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254766529 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254770911 THEVA DARSHINI SURENTHIRAN BM16110059                                     Yan ru's statement that says robotics did aid the paralyzed patients through the introduction of the exoskeleton that help them in recovery is absolutely agreeable and this statement is based on rehabilitation basis in the medical field. It plays a crucial role in the recovery of people with disabilities, and also improving their mobility, strength, coordination and quality of life. The robots are actually programmed to adapt to conditions of patients such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury and multiple sclerosis. I would like to elaborate more on the function of robotics in medical field as well in terms of surgical assistance. The development of the remote-controlled robots actually are programmed to assist surgeons while performing operations with minimal invasive procedures. The perfect example of this is the highly-sophisticated robotic arm which is created to aid in the medical operating ward enhanced with 3D technology. These can actually save time and energy of the doctors as we can reduce the manpower needed during operations and thus, more doctors would be available to treat patients who are very much in need of their doctors for surgeries and treatments as well.]]> 2018-04-24 11:52:58 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254770911 bm16110030 https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/254773770 Lee Miao Lynn                                                                In my opinion robotics help to enhance the efficiency of human work and chores for example washing machine reduce our workload and decrease the burden of our mother.With the introduction of washing machine it can increase the family time when less time is used to complete the chores which can strengthen the family bond by having more interacting time. Moreover the time saved can be use to focus on our jobs and study. We cannot just reject the enhancement of the robotics just in the name of independence . In fact we need to improve ourselves so that we will not be replaced by the robotics one day in the fast-paced era. We need to emphasize on more humanity value such as smile, warmness and love which is irreplaceable by the dull robotics.

I see your points of view but let us focus back on the topic. Based on the Cambridge English Dictionary, robotics means that it is the science of making and using robots. Obviously, we are not discussing about technologies but robotics. If we continue to increase our reliance on it, humans will be in a lack of job opportunities. The country keeps creating Information Technology jobs to keep track with the progression of robotics but in another way will deplete the investment in other sectors. For example, plantation, education, medical field and security forces. Imagine robots will be going to replace tutors or educators in education. That means that children are taught by robots which could not really understand humanities. Therefore, there will be more crimes as youngsters are not educated well-rounded from the aspect of emotions, physical and mental. Hence, I strongly believe that reliance on robotics is not a good thing.]]> 2018-04-25 03:54:36 UTC https://padlet.com/bm16110034/z64gojz6b9nf/wish/255089282
