ROBOTS
Would you like a robot in your house? It is now generally accepted that in the future robots will take over many
our tasks especially jobs of a repetitive nature. But it’s doubtful if robots will ever be able to do any of the more
creative types of work - or indeed if people would want them to. In the home, robots would probably be used to do
the cleaning table-laying scrubbing and washing up, but it’s considered unlikely so far that they’ll be used to do the
cooking - at least not in the near future. Robots in the home might not be creative enough to do the cooking, plan the
meals, and so on. They would be used as slaves, thereby freeing people to do more of the things they wants.
