The Ethical and Moral Dilemma brought about by the emergence of

the robotic industry

Innovating Robots to be part of society is kinda alarming somehow for me

because it seems that technology is trying to have a replacement for humans, especially
if a lot of industrial organizations, corporations, and manufacturing companies will be
benefiting from it. Imagine, human intelligence can just be replaced by a Robot who can
act and behave exactly what humans do. Isaac Asimov created this Law of Robotic where
it tackles the ethical dilemma regarding the emergence of the robotic industry. It is
clearly stated that Robot may not harm humans, a robot must obey an order given by
humans except where such orders would conflict with the First Law and a robot must
protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or
Second Laws. A Robot that they are trying to innovate would have a positive or negative
impact on society, yes I agree that somehow it helps for the convenience of everyone but
in reality, it seems that we are now replacing the natural engagement of human to
human relationships. Because of its utility, robotics has become increasingly applicable
in our society in recent years. Robots were initially programmed machines that
performed a small number of tasks, but their usefulness grew over time, as did their
complexity.

People would be afraid of robots if they're not sure what they're doing. But if they
can examine and explain the motives for their conduct, we are more likely to solve this
issue of trust. They’ve been trying to do things with robots that humans are bad at so
much, such as preserving attention on long drives or being sharp on the brakes when the
problem started, says Bernhard Weidemann, Daimler's Stuttgart spokesperson. "We'll
have to try to program things that come more naturally to humans, but not to machines
if we go forward."
