Bonsoir,
Suite au travail effectué pendant l'année scolaire, j'ai décidé de baser ma notion sur les robots. Pourriez-vous corriger les éventuels coquilles restantes ? J'ai en général un niveau correct mais le stress a tendance à avoir raison de ma grammaire x)
Merci !
I'm going to talk about the notion of "Idea of Progress" through the example of robots. Progress is a movement fowards. Then, the idea of progress is the idea that human condition can become increasingly better thanks to various advances in science, technology and social organization. However, the idea of progress is still subject to debate between those consider that it's beneficial and those who think it's harmful. So, should we fear progress ? For answer this question, I will focus on the interview of Kevin Warwick and on the film "I robot".
First of all, History is full of progress and evolution that have allowed the world to be what it is today. Indeed, thanks to breakthrough in science, our conditions of life are better and medecine has become more efficient and accessible. For instance, Kevin Warwick a wheeled professor of cybernetics in "my body, my laboratory" explained how he carried out an experimnent on himself to figure out the interaction between man and machine. The aim was to see if a human being could respond to stimuli generated by a computer thanks to a silico chip in his arm. It was successful because by the implant, Warwick was able to control an electric chair just by his thoughts. So, Kevin Warwick was enhanced with electronics implants. Consequently that article excerpt of the Time underlines that progress in robotics cand find applications in medical field. It could help patients whose nervous system is damaged or disabled people by enhanced prosthesis for instance.
However, there are some reasons to be affraid of progress specially in robotic field. Indeed robots and machines become more and more intelligent. In other word, they could become out of control. For this reason, Isaac Asimov have written the Three Law of Robotics wich prevent robots to harm a human being.This is illustrate with the dystopian american film "I Robot" directed by Alex Proyas where robots have been produced to serve humanity. Althought the only aim of robots it is to improve the quality of life for everyone, it also lead to humanity's downfall. As a result, human being could be subservient to machine. Finally, even if this actually science-fiction, it could become a science fact in the future. Indeed cloning people have become possible nowdays whereas in the past, it was only a dream !
To conclude, progress is essential to the evolution of our world. Moreover that help us having a better life. But, if news technologies have advantages, they have also drawbacks. Finally, it's not scientific knowledge that is either good or evil but the application of it.
