In many science-fictions, the author usually represents us the picture that the machines acquire the intelligence as much complex as human beings. The human beings civilization was destroyed by the advanced intelligent robot and all humans become the servants in the mechanical society. However the version in the fiction is not only attractive, but also horrible. Whether or not the imagination in the book would turn to reality, In my point of view,(这句可以不要) I am inclined to support the idea that the human mind can not be acquired(conquered) by machines which only tools of humans.
In the first place, we all admit that it is human beings who have invented various kinds of machines. We create them to expand our abilities to many respects for reconstructing the circumstance around us. In the ancient society, since we have little knowledge about the mechanism, the ancient people rode horse or other traffic tools relying on the animal’s power for a distant delivery of cargos. When we know the power of the steam, we make use of it to invent the train for carrying goods and passengers from one city to another which totally change the traditional way of transportation and sharply reduce the time spent on the way. However the train are widely used for transportation, up to now all the trains need the driver to operate them, withnot(without) running all by themselves. So the machines just work as the tools under human's control.
In the second place, the level of science and technology is not as advanced as that it can promote the development of the machinery's intelligence. In addition, we cannot rule out the possibility that we can never make a machine as smart as human being. It is common sense that the human's brain is definitely complicated which have more functions and mechanisms unknown to present scientists. Until have the scientist had a clear picture of the human' brain to imitate, there is no possibility to create a robot which have the intelligence as human. In fact all machines only have high level of automatization(automaticity), which means that all machines works follow the program operated by the engineers in advance, not means that the machines are as superior as engineers.
Admittedly, after the industrial revolution, human beings benefit from the use of the machines which accelerate the development of the civilization and the industrialization. Compared with the condition in the past time, the machines become smarter and abler than ever before. In many occasions, especially some dangerous fields, the machines can replace humans for implement some special works. For instance, in some toxic environment like an accidental field in a chemical factory which is fulfill with toxic gas, without being damaged by the gas the robot can rush into the workshop to rescue the workers trapped in the workshop and help people get rid of the accident.
To sum up, tools are just tools which never are personal.(personal 有没有和人一样智能的意思,我不确认,请斟酌一下) It is unnecessarily for us to fear that one day the machines roused to rule the world, and it is most important for us to make full use of the machines instead of being frightened to make progress to research in and invent new machines. If not, our society would stop making steps forward. We might remember that the history of the modern civilization is the history of the development of machine.
1. 字数统计不对呀:570。看篇幅至少就有500。
2. 只有部分拼写错。
3. 文中好像一直没有正面回答是否同意human mind will always be superior to machines,只是同意machines are only tools of human minds。 |
