AI and Robotics

The article I read was, When Robots Can Kill, it's Unclear Who Will Be To Blame.While reading this article I learned how dangerous they can be if they are assigned to kill people, and if they make a mistake. For example, the movie iRobot and Robocop when the robots turned on people and began killing them. I think the one's to blame are the manufacturer's and the developers. The article mentioned the military. I think t.he military would get the larges benefit from a robotic solider, like in the movie Robocop they could use the robot as fighters to go to war in the place of soldiers. I also learned while reading this article that these Robots would be able to open doors and drive cars. I cannot wait to see this in reality for myself like a robotic teacher or a robotic taxi driver driving a car like in the movie Total Recall. I believe some robots can do what humans cans such as the Terminator, even though he did things better than a normal human. I think humans are more likely to make errors because we humans always make mistakes at a time in our life.

Legal and Ethical Issues

The article I read was, Open source textbook program expanding in coming months. I thought this article was great for a few reasons. As stated in the article, "This is not going to be cheaper, but our vision has technology in everyone’s hands,” he said. “We have said we’re not buying textbooks, but we will spend the same, if not more money, on technology.” I learned the school system are trying to become more advance. The school system invested a lot of time trying to develop a better system that will be beneficial. For the students and teachers because I believe the students  prefer  to do online homework than reading a book. I see this open source text book program as a way to help the students become more involved in doing there work. Also since these kids are so advance in technology already it is good way to teach them, because the students would maybe find enjoyment from reading on an open source instead of from a textbook. Besides that, the open source would constantly update unlike having to constantly buy new textbooks it would be more convenient.

Security and Privacy

I read the article, Target works on security-heavy credit cards, after breach. While reading this article I learned Target system was hacked. I also learned Target is now beefing up there security. I learned they are going to speed up there high-security credit cards. It was shocking to me a large cooperation as Target being hacked. I also cannot wait to see there new credit cards with the embedded microprocessor chip. Also as everything else is advancing it is now time for a more advance credit and debit card. I believe the main problem is because of technology. As it is constantly advancing and cybercriminals are becoming smarter and better equipped. As the article stated, "When first introduced, that stripe was an innovation. But in today's world, more is needed". I agree because "more is needed" it is the time for a more advance credit card and transaction system. I believe this will be an incredible next generation technology for security and society purposes. I hope the credit card creators continue advancing there cards and becoming more advance as cell phones have over the years.
