1MACHINES AND ETHICS
Introduction:
Technology has already changed the worlds face to a huge extent. It plays a major
role in the day to day life of the normal human beings. This advancements in the technology
have become of the most used thing for making the lives of the human beings a lot easier.
Artificial Intelligence and the use of the robots are the two examples of the same (Xu et al.
2015). The ability of the machines to learn new things without the help of the human beings
is known as the AI. The mixture of the AI and the robots have helped the people to do task
that were once near to impossible for the humans. The purpose of this report is to evaluate
few articles.
Summary of the Social Impact of a Robot Co-Worker in Industrial Settings:
This article focuses about the one of the major phenomenon of the recent generation
that is robots working alongside workers for making the products more precise (Shukla,
Khare and Deo 2015). This paper also focus on three different sites where the robots works
with the human foe producing the better results. While robots have long been anticipated as
global assistants that work in day-to-day human atmospheres, the prime use of robotic
technologies have been in manufacturing works and field settings for automating monotonous
work or performing tasks that are difficult to get to or dangerous for humans (Zhou et al.
2013). In order to better understand how the collaborative robots are effecting the work and
insights of manufacturing employees, the authors conducted an ethnographic study at three
industrial plants that had picked up a particular robotic platform which is a much important
tactic to understand the relationships
Summary of Ethics and Robotics:
This paper is basically about the ethics related to robotics and how the machine
learning performances are related to the ethical impact in the society. Advances in

information technologies have given rise to many technical improvements that have paved
the way for the spread of robots in today's world. The authors brought to notice the history of
the machine learning pros and cons. This can be explained as of the area which is much
needed in the paper for highlighting the factors that were held in the past. The author brought
to light the issues of the present day machine learning objectives (Mohri, Rostamizadeh and
Talwalkar 2012).
Summary of Social Robots' Impact on Human Judgment:
The social are gaining influence day by day in many of the sectors of the industry due
to their high potential of the social good such as the healthcare and the engineering (Kanda
and Ishiguro 2016). But the problem in this are bearing the high responsibility and the
profound understanding the degree of the sociological responsibity. In compare to robots in
the environment of industry, social robots are specially designed to co-operate with humans,
transportation, healthcare, and retail, housework.
Summary of the Smart Machines Are Not a Threat to Humanity:
There are huge concerns for the factor that the smart machines are a huge threats to
the human beings. One of the major thing is that the machines are taking away the jobs of the
human beings (Mohri, Rostamizadeh and Talwalkar 2012). According to Stephen Hawking is
quoted in Cellan-Jones1 as saying: “The development of full artificial intelligence could spell
the end of the human race.” Also amazon Founder Jeff Bezos expressed something similar to
this. But such concerns are part if the long history as new researches explains that the AI will
make the life of normal human beings easier and comfortable.
