We think that author’s argument about that there are two reason interesting things about ‘Bob’ The robots is not convincing for two reasons.
First, the author does not use any facts to support his idea. For example, ‘autonomous robot, a robot that can do things for itself, function for that length of time in an environment it has no control over. Normally when you put robots into places you have to control everything, to tie things down, make sure nobody gets in the robot’s way. You want to be able to make a robot cope in a real human environment.’ He does not provide official statistical data on robot that can work itself by on have control over.
Second, the author claim that ‘The robot can start to learn things about this environment that it wouldn’t ever see normally,’ he doses not really explain his reason or give is not detailed. Also, he does not include a clear source of information in his writing.
