Af Emil Kirkegaard Afleveret som engelsk stil, derfor er der et resume, men jeg tænkte, at diskussionen var værd at poste her også. Artiklen der refereres til hedder "Dances with robots". Karakter givet: 10 (ny skala). A. ΣMary (hint hint) Japan is currently attempting to create robots that look and act more like humans, so called humanoids (from Greek, human-alike). Recently, robot scientists put a 3-year old girl and her mother in a room together with a robot, at first the robot and the girl interacted, but after a while she got bored, the robot responded with talking to the girl's mother, making the girl jealous and reviving interest. In other parts of the world, robots are used mainly for unpleasant jobs, but Japan focuses on creating robots that can live together with humans in a symbiosis. This is problematic because the robots need to use language and social skills, however one robot already understands 30,000 phrases in four languages. Other technologies are also in development, such as sense of touch and relation-recognition, that make robots capable of understanding relations between humans, by measuring the time spent together and the looks on their faces. The reason for Japan's friendliness towards robots probably lies in Japan's animist Shinto culture, where 'dead' objects, such as swords and teapots can have souls. Japan's government is currently promoting robot projects. (189) B. Cum-mentory The meaning of the quoted passage can be summarized as creating robots (artificial life), that can 'live' together with humans in society, by making them imitate human skills. This is significant because normally robots are only used to do things, that we humans either don't like doing or cannot do, e.g. lifting heavy objects, assembly line work, or cleaning up after a chemical explosion etc. But here the word 'symbiosis' is used, which means:
Dances with robots
