The rise of optimization of technology has been all around us.

Helping every individual in a more tranquil

way of living. Now, the Fourth Industrial Revolution is taking place introducing a more promising way of
living. However, how fascinating it may seem there would always be a negative effect in a revolution.
One of which is its potential to robotize humanity and thus deprive us of our heart and soul.
However, I beg to disagree with the statement for the following reasons.
1. Robots are made specifically to assist humans. Stated by Brad Keywell (2017), robots and
humans when working together produces a better work. Robots are designed in order to assist the
humans. People can be better at their jobs with the technology of today—and the technology that
is yet to come—rather than fearing that their human skills will be devalued.

just-machines/
2. The Fourth Industrial Revolution have a potential to bring a new cultural renaissance (Schwab,
2015). Wherein, humans can live in a more inclusive, sustainable and harmonious society. It is
dependent on us, humans, to build a society with a foundation of common perspective of
inevitability. https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2015/10/will-the-fourth-industrial-revolution-
have-a-human-heart-and-soul/
3. According to Jessica Barden in her article The Pros and Cons of Having Robots in the
Workplace, robots depends on their Artificial Intelligence; however, us humans have a
competence to learn more and broaden our knowledge . Robots can not improve their knowledge
beyond what they are programmed simply because they are not capable to act freewill.

4. Robots may be improving as years pass; however, they are not still better than us humans.
Conferring to Morgan (2017), robots are operating in a narrow level. As what is stated earlier,
they only perform what they are programmed to do that humans designed.

why-are-we-worried-now/
5. Robots does not have the capacity to generate creative solutions (Onibalusi, 2018). It is true that
robots maybe better than humans doing repetitive tasks; however, creativity is a human trait that
robots do not possess.

6. At the end of the day, it will always be the humans that will decide what the future will hold
based on how we will shape it. And that is by prioritizing people first and boosting them. There
may be a possibility of humanity being robotized but I believe in accordance to what Klaus
Schwab (2016) have mentioned that our human nature which are creativity, empathy and
stewardship would lead into new collective and moral consciousness.
