159.The human mind will always be superior to machines because machines are only tools of human minds.
The speaker claims that machines will always be inferior to the human mind.I strongly agree with this point.As the machines possess a good many features,they become widely used in nearly all fields of the society.However, it is the human who creates the machines to help solving some certain problems.Although machines surpass the human in some areas, they will alwsys remain the tools of human minds.
The first reason why i agree with the statement is that machines,lacking the ability to reason, must follow the human's instructions.This is especially true when it comes to the field of computer.Even the most up-to-date computers must be given orders by the operators and follow the orders line by line.Without these orders,they cannot start the work automatically and are no more than some metal. What's more, if new situations which operators neglect to take into account in the orders show up in the process of running of programs,the computer cannot cope with them and have to stop or fall into the infinite loops .In other words,these new situations are beyond the computer's ability because of the lackness of reasoning.Therefor, machines are merely excellent tools of humans and cannot simulate the thinking process of human minds.
A second reason why the human mind is superior to machines is that the former possesses the power to create and invent .Human accomplished so many inventions to improve the quality of their lives For example, after critical thinking and thorough planning ,human invented automobiles, which have a profound impact on the modern society. With them human could reach further places than before quickly and conveniently. Moreover ,the automobiles are improved continuously to meet various needs of the humans. Obviously, it is hard to require machines to "invent" or "create".
Admittedly, during certain areas ,machines have surpassed the humans. For examples, before computers were invented, numerical computations took humans great effort and much time and results of these computations may have mistakes. This situation would not be repeated because computers could finish these computations ,such as the artillery equations and differential equations, in short times and high level of accuracy. In some scientific researches, robots could finish some dangerous tasks which are beyond the human' ability. To examine the situation of the top of volcanoes, where many kinds of dreadful gases exist, robots are used as a result of their resistance of these terrible gases. However, we should be aware of that all the features of machines come from the human minds.
All in all ,the human mind was and will always be superior to the machines. With some features machines act as good assistants of the human. Nevertheless, they have little chance to learn the reasoning and ability to invent. Human should be optimistic about the future of the machines and continue to improve them to help us better. |
