I think robots can do most things that humans do and maybe
even more efficient. However, robots are set up to perform tasks only in one
way. Many tasks require not only to get the job done quickly and efficiently
but also skills, experience and emotions put into it. The fact that so many
things are done by machines now, people actually prefer to have handmade
materials because human actually put thoughts into making it. Humans do get
tired and make mistakes but errors can also have technological errors. When
errors are made by humans, at least there will be someone to take
responsibility for the errors made but when robots make errors, who will be
blamed? The robots or the people who create them? Humans should also be responsible for the errors that occur in robots because they are created by humans.
As stated in the article “Should we put robots on trial?” “With
most robot-like machines that exist today, any serious problems can be easily
traced back to a human somewhere, whether because the machine was used
carelessly or because it was intentionally programmed to do harm.”
I agree. When serious problems are traced back to a human somewhere, what happens? How would we resolve it?
