Will robots replace humans to rule the world?
The Hannover Industry Fair in Germany showed a new technology trend to the world: the production methods of the future factories emphasize flexibility and diversity, and they are developing towards the highly automated "Industry 4.0" era. The future machine systems can even communicate with each other. Workers are needed again. In the future, robots can perform human duties and can interact with humans.
"Are there any figures in the factory of the future?" This is the question asked by the article "Hannover Industrial Exhibition in the Age of Robotics" on the Chinese website of Deutsche Welle. Siemens' automatic control system can communicate with SAP's processing software and other systems. All systems can communicate with each other continuously, so as to continuously improve and achieve all requirements flexibly. This era is called "Industry 4.0", which means that the era of "smart factories" is coming, and there may no longer be workers in future factories.
Robots not only replace humans in factory production, they even penetrate into other areas of human life. The Chinese website of The New York Times reported in October last year that robots that are more and more human-like have been developed, and they have begun to perform tasks performed by humans.
French robot manufacturer Aldebaran will launch a humanoid robot Romeo (Romeo), whose job is to take care of the elderly and help with housework. There is another kind of humanoid robot, NAO, if you gently kiss its cheek, it will respond by touching your cheek gently and making a soft kiss.
The article claims that the use of robots will not be limited to repetitive tasks in factories or hospitals. It begins to shuttle around the world and can even "cooperate with humans." In the past, robots needed human control. Now more and more robots can perform tasks without direct human control.
Robots can never replace humans
In any case, robots cannot replace humans. At present, the progress of intelligent machines is mainly manifested in the improvement of calculation and decision-making capabilities. Any machine must operate according to fixed rules. However, the big feature of the real world of human life is that there are no absolute and fixed rules. There may be specific rules on a partial or individual level, but on the whole it is so complicated that people cannot fully grasp it, whether it is mathematics, physics or Social science, the space for exploration is endless. By maintaining awe of the complexity of the world, we can understand that the invention of a robot like AlphaGo by humans is only a trivial step.

As the philosopher Pascal said, even if nature eventually destroys mankind, mankind is still much more noble than pure natural force, because even at the time of destruction, mankind understands and understands this fact, and natural force completely understands it. I don't know. Compared with sophisticated machines, most people may be clumsy and stupid, but it is love and compassion, not pure intelligence, that sustain human society. At all times, machines and technology must serve noble people and pursue humanism, not the other way around.
