Why the Future Doesn’t Need Us.

Some of the most intelligent minds in the world have wondered what lies in our future. How far will human evolution take us? Or is there even any point in human evolution going any further for us? One has to wonder, what is the point for scientists, who are working on the human body, to advance the way our body and brain works, while other scientists are trying to recreate a human, rather a humanoid, android, or robots into artificial intelligence? If this is the future of humanity, the perfect artificially created human, made by a human, the future will most likely not need us much anymore.

There’s no question that humanity will advance so rapidly in unimaginable ways within the next 50 or more years. Even 50 years ago, those who were the young generation then most likely did not imagine the outcome behind advancement in technology, breakthroughs in medicine and healthcare, as well as machinery, electronics, and computers that take over human labour. If within those fifty years, it goes from human building, let’s say, a vehicle, and today, mechanical and robotic arms, controlled by computers, which were all developed and built by humans, are now entirely building cars, with very little human involvement during the installation process. The next five decades will prove, that humanity will have no place in complex situations; computers and machines can do it all for us. That’s something else that can be speculated; those computers and machines will soon be developed entirely by other self-thinking machines that will comprehend when and how many more machines that construct the things essential to humanity. All humanity can do is program information to computers what kind of machines and computers to build, until within the next 50 to 100 years after that, it’s self-thinking program because more intelligent than humanity itself . . . Which is why the future doesn’t need us.

It’s a troubling, and startling idea that one of these days in the near or distant future, humanity will suddenly take a downfall because of our creations. What scientists believed to be a fascinating and incredible invention to advance ourselves through machines, those same machines could take us over. This could mean in two devastating ways.

Machines in the future, aside from today, will be so precise and multitasking, there will be no need for humans to take part in certain tasks. Computer programs, for example, AutoCAD, a software program that people use to create illustrations to design small or large scale buildings, will eventually be programmed intelligent enough in a smart computer, that will receive the designs of an architect, and in minutes, a plan drawing will be constructed. Anything that requires precision measurements, or straight lines, anything in a precise nature, machines can do it better than humans. However, there is good reason that computers have better abilities than humans. Computers have a way of keeping all embedded knowledge that was downloaded into their memory kept and remembered. For human’s, our design flaw was we can’t always remember everything we learn. That is if we learned anything. Information isn’t loaded into our minds, it’s taught to us, and our brains will determine the amount of knowledge contained. Computers, on the other hand, can’t control their memory, their memory controls them.

The second way that machines can take over humanity is in a much more sinister scenario. Machines can become so much more intelligent, they could dismiss the idea of humans altogether, and disobey us to a point of extinction. This could be done in ways that machines have taken over hospitals and have spread a pandemic that alter human genes to prevent reproduction worldwide. Within 100 years, humanity could be wiped out, and humanity would never even know it. Other quicker ways would to kill humans instantly, likely with the way it seems to be represented in media, as a nuclear holocaust. After which, humankind in its endangered state will have to up-rise and strike back at the artificial creations.

Machines have very many advantages as to why they can be better than humans, and why we wouldn’t be needed. The two main reasons, one previously mentioned, is their ability to remember because of the simple process of binary, (0s and 1s). Machines can’t forgets, because of caches of memory in their systems, and that they can be upgraded at any time. Algorithms can solve problems instantly.

Their second main advantage is their material in creation. They can be made of some of the strongest and most indestructible materials known to man. Man can create machines in many sizes that can be small enough to fit in small surfaces, or larger than life itself, Their materials can protect them from fires, radioactivity and other harmful things that can injure or kill a human. Their strength can be phenomenal with the mechanics that can be installed. Their only weakness, due to electricity being their living source, would be an electromagnetic pulse to knock out their circuits, or block out the sun in the case that their power source is solar power.

The negative aspect to machines would be their ability to feel. They will be without emotions, sentiments and physical sensations. In humanity, it seems like life can’t do without the two aspects of opposites that fuel the world. Where there is pleasure, there is pain, happiness comes sadness, success and failure, ying-yang, black and white. That beings said, the idea that a machine thinking that humanity is unneeded for existence may not be a thought whatsoever if they do not contain the mind of opposites. If they have no emotions toward good or bad, then they can’t think. It’s a rule of nature and life. Everything has an opposite, and if the human builders leave that one aspect out of the mind of a machine, machines will just be a machine, collecting data, and operating by the demands. However, that doesn’t mean they can’t take over humanity. They will not disobey like humanity can, so they will be seen as the perfect listeners, and the perfect helpers. Where it matters, they can take over the laborious world and take away the jobs for humans. Some of the worst jobs will be available for humans.

In conclusion, with the rise of technology, robotic, android, and other means through artificial intelligence may one day take over planet Earth as the dominant race. We will be an inferior race with no need to have a role on this planet, and either from our own creation, or simply by no money to support ourselves without jobs that were taken over, the future of mankind isn’t needed. Machines will be stronger, smarter, and in some ways indestructible. They can be everything we wish we could be if we had the power, however, humanity can create that perfect human. If technology can create machines with human consciousness downloaded into their computerized minds, humanity, turned artificial will have no need to walk the Earth. The perfect human was created. Machines.
