Robots and cyborgs have been around for awhile now and there have been many arguements concerning the ethical dilemmas brought
up by the subjects. Although these two fields can benefit us in a substantial amount many people are still against it because
of the concern on whether it is right or wrong to engineer things that are not going along with " god's " plan or even some
that believe that it is just now normal and is not meant to be created and that we are going against nature.
These ethical problems have long been thought about ever since the development of robots. In the early stages the Russian
scientist Issac Isomv had already been thinking about the risks of robots and designed three laws that would be accepted as
a good ethical standard:
-A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm
-A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law
- A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law
These laws are preventative measures in case we humans ever create something that is beyond our control to take fate by the
hand and guide it so that it will not find destruction of our kind.
As for cyborgs some people believe that the technology used to help people over come their physical problems is unnatural
and prolongs their life past its destined time. Also in our brains the future technology may lead us to use a higher percentage
of it causing new and possibly groundbreaking research to be born.Now there is a module called the TMS that can help us change
our mental perception of our mood by activation and even help us enhance our control of specific areas of our brain; but is
this right? The ethical problem that arises in this area is that are we meant to unlock our latent potential our selves or
were we meant to gain our future capabilities through evolution.Even some believe that in the future the cybernetic research
will advance at such a great pace that may change us humans in aspects unknown.
