'Yes, the robots are coming, but they are not conquering the planet anytime soon — even if that’s what the media hype would have us believe. And they’re not as smart or technologically advanced as we think, according to Kate Darling, a leading expert on robot ethics.'
Too often robots are perceived as external realities as regards humans. Such perception is an error. For strictly robots are elements of knowing-subjects, they have no external existence in the universe as Sun, Moon, they are products of humans' understanding or humans in applying their knowledge have inclined into practical reality things in making them intelligible have called them robots in order to identify them from themselves as humans. Therefore, robots reflect the state of humans understanding for strictly humans cannot know something beyond the idea they have of that thing. Idea being the representation thought has of the being, what is.
What we need to keep in mind is robots are products of our understanding and robots can look like, play a role, etc as we want them to by deploying our knowledge if this that we don't create ex nihilo what we know, we don't create our objects but we only transform what exist independently of us. Robots are not comingn robots are not going to conquer the world, but humans' mind deployed into robots we do this and that.
The real issue is how humans should deploy their understanding in remaining humans, in improving themsleves? One of the answers is it is given in humans' intelligible nature, the ability to extract themselves from determination. In other words, humans can wisely, with cautious apply their knowledge.
