We think of Robots as being the last frontier of science or the whole goal of science. Well, since we are so close to finally creating artificial intelligence have we ever though of the consequences? If we have learned anything from Hollywood is that when humans transcend into artificial life, humans usually get killed, enslaved, or the whole world is put into peril. Some of the movies that portray this very well are Terminator and I Robot. These movies show what can possibly happen or what will happen. Of course, we can’t say for sure that this is possible anyway. I mean evil is human nature right? Robots can’t have feelings even if they are intelligent, in fact it wasn’t even meant for humans until Eve ate the forbidden fruit.
Well, Robots could do us harm without trying to or meaning to. This could be done if the instructions are misinterpreted an example would be if they are programed to protect us. This is a good command correct? Well what if they try to protect us from ourselves? That would be no more activities for anyone, sports would be banned, watching movies, overeating, no suicide attempts, it would be horrible! They would probably take over our task-force as well, who wouldn’t “hire” someone or something if they can do a perfect job. This would mean depression would skyrocket, those used to work would take it very bad. I mean look at the increasing depression on everyone who gets laid-off due to our failing economy.
In my opinion Robots would be the salvation of human beings. They would provide protection that humans can’t give. A human can easily be killed, bribed, fooled and what can we say about our fitness these days. Less work for humans means more time for recreations like exercising, reading, spending time with the family and be relaxed. Of course, all this can be accomplished only if the government agrees to certain things like everyone would get an even paycheck no one would get or less. That would be hard because you would get paid not to work. Who would agree to this? A solution could be that everyone owns their own robot, given to them at birth to guard them, like a guardian angel. This Robot would work in place of that person. All this would seem like a sci fi movie, and would be very confusing and complex. Anyway, i am glad we don’t think we will have to worry about this in our lifetime!
Thanks for reading!

If you’re wondering what an RSS Feed is, read the following article provided by Wikipedia!
“RSS is a family of Web feed formats used to publish frequently updated works—such as blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video—in a standardized format.[2] An RSS document (which is called a “feed”, “web feed”,[3] or “channel”) includes full or summarized text, plus metadata such as publishing dates and authorship. Web feeds benefit publishers by letting them syndicate content automatically. They benefit readers who want to subscribe to timely updates from favored websites or to aggregate feeds from many sites into one place. RSS feeds can be read using software called an “RSS reader”, “feed reader”, or “aggregator”, which can be web-based or desktop-based. A standardized XML file format allows the information to be published once and viewed by many different programs. The user subscribes to a feed by entering the feed’s URI (often referred to informally as a “URL”, although technically, those two terms are not exactly synonymous) into the reader or by clicking an RSS icon in a browser that initiates the subscription process. The RSS reader checks the user’s subscribed feeds regularly for new work, downloads any updates that it finds, and provides a user interface to monitor and read the feeds.”

Do you want to remove all your cookies from your computer? But don’t know how or what this is all about?
Well to begin here is an explanation of what a computer cookie is, a cookie is a text-only string that gets entered into the memory of your browser. This value of a variable that a website sets. If the lifetime of this value is set to be longer than the time you spend at that site, then this string is saved to file for future reference. So you see, a cookie is just memory your browser stores for faster surfing. So why would anyone want to remove them? Well many cookies also store spyware, which slow down our computers and send our personal info to anyone on the web. Also, many internet users have skeletons hiding in this stored memory. Deleting cookies regularly can make some browsers run faster as well. This is the case of Apple’s Safari. To delete your cookies you have two options. One is to simply go to your start menu, click on the control panel and then go to Network and internet. There you will see internet options. Once there you will find “delete browsing history and cookies”. The other option is to download ccleaner, this tool is awesome, it works as a registry cleaner and as a file cleaner. The best thing about it it’s totally free! To download it go to www.ccleaner.com
