The general argument made by Bill Joy in
his work, “Why the future doesn’t need us”
is that Humans will eventually fuse with, or become dependent on, machines. He writes, “Humans clearly face extinction.”
is that Humans will eventually fuse with, or become dependent on, machines. He writes, “Humans clearly face extinction.”
In this
passage, Joy is suggesting that He agrees with the new views on our future that
he has discovered.
In conclusion, Joy’s belief is that people
who think this way are right.
In
my view, Joy is wrong/right, because the scenario he describes could very
likely happen.
More specifically, I believe that this HAS
to happen eventually, even if it takes centuries.
Although X might object to becoming
artificial to live longer, I maintain that most people would take this option.
Therefore, I conclude that people will
become dependent on machines.
