iRobots

The story of the movie takes place in the year of 2035, which the part of technological revolution. It is futuristic scenery where the world has filled with millions of servant robots. These robots have used to do all the manual labor. They are the perfect helper to the society. Humans are free to enjoy their lives without the stress. Robots have been hardwired with the said three laws (The Three Laws of Robotics) that make them incapable of harming the society. Yet there is murder happen to one of the robotics science who is a friend of Will Smith in this movie. Will Smith plays the role of Detective Spooner who has distrust of the robots because of the incident in his past. It is believed that his friend has committed suicide which Spooner does not consider. Spooner suspicion on the incident falls to Sonny, the unique robot who has dreams and emotions.

With this movie, it leaves me a question to me if could robots will take over the world. Definitely, robots is really has a great help to the society. We all know automation has currently exists in many areas, in our house, at our work and even to the new technologies that have invented. Exoskeleton is the external skeleton that would help disabled people to move and making them less dependency with other people. One of the advantages of robots will be a replacement human in the areas of security, surveillance and defense, such soldiers and armies which will result be less human deaths. But having robots will bring drawbacks to the society. If robots will carry out all the labors tasks in the company, industry or all human workloads surely unemployment will arise might as well poorly paid workers. I cannot truly justify if robots are a great help or would be a destruction to human existence.
