MOst people will love that because it can help us do things easier. People will be more lazy in doing things for their selves. They will simply use these technologies to finished their work in a small span of time.

Your right! It can make our work easier but it will make us lazy... tamad na nga tayo mas patatamarin pa... hehehe adios

pano na yung mga non techi people like the oldies???????
peace^^ mwah!

yup, panu na ung oldies like ni fe hahahahhahah

>>(asus! ginagamit pa ang forum sa pansariling pagpapacute ha alvin...) hehehe...
>>by the way, agree ako with fe lalo na dito sa philippineshindi pa masyado naeeducate ang tao sa technology like computers kasi kahit parents ko di din masyado marunog with internet. kung magsupport and gov't sa pagdala ng technology sten i think they are responsible with educating the oldies. hekhek...

oldies are not the same...some of them are fast adaptive to technologies, changes happening in the world. but most oldies are really finding hard time relating, understanding what tecnologies, advancement are contributing into this chaging world.

true, may older people can easily adapt.
if we're going to rely on the gov't for this eh wala na talagang mangyayari. heheh.. really.
the gov't can't even modernize their offices.

but on the other hand, since many private offices use modern technology to operate, older people learn to use this kind of stuff.

uu nga.. we have no assurance on what the government can do to assist the oldies to adopt to our future environment but look at biodiversity as an example. today the government has passed a law where the subject should be taught to students and be included in the curriculum. hehe!! im just thinking positive and actually hoping for the best. para naman kung susulong ang pilipinas sa makabagong teknolohiya, lahat susulong at walang maiiwan. hehe!!

nga pala sabi sa seminar.. we can help through our little deeds. dapat magsupport tayo in the future, kung magkakaron man, ng isang foundation to help those people who don't know how to use technology! wahahahahaha!!!

sa dami ng mga hindi pa natatpos (actually, pati nauumpisahan) ng government, mabibigyan pa kya nila ng time yan? Knowing how our government works eh mukhang malabong mngyari yan...hehe wish we could be of help someday...(sabi ni sen. chiz )

pagpasensyahan na kung ako'y magtatagalog.. ikaw ay tama, kailangan tayong maging tulong sa ating bansa para sa ikauunlad nito. tayo ang pag asa ng kinabukasan.. kya teknolohiya ay palaganapin sa sangkatauhan. teknolohiya ay magagamit sa tamang paraan, nparaan na kung saan ay makakatulong sa mga kababayan, ndi para tayo'y maging tamad tulad ni juan..magsikap prin at mabuhay ng tama (chiz' accent) hehe

pero wg nga lng sanang abusuhin ng mga ibang nilalang katulad ng mga ibang tao s gobyerno db.. pero ayon sa aking nakikita kahit nga ngaun e ang dameng tamad panu pa kya s future...hmmm...

what? hey guys i cant understand you! translate everything in english please.... hahaha... kimpoy i agree!

For me this technologies will change us by making our human capabilities and talents unused and undiscovered.
It will make people lazier than ever. The more advance the world is, the less we use our own human capabilities.

very true indeed! though, on the other hand, they can make our lives easier..but we should alweiz be responsible of that so that these robots would not invade our lives, anywei....

ayt!! marami n ngang tamad sa philippines, mas dadami p! wah!
tumpak din na magiging undiscovered na ang mga human capabilities.. kakalungkot isipin.. T_T

American scientists could use robots, cells, and computational modeling to test chemicals and phase out the use of lab animals, thanks to a multi-agency pact announced this week.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the National Institutes of Health signed a memo of understanding to use new testing methods. The agencies announced the toxicity testing agreement Thursday. The details are published in the journal Science.

Two NIH institutes will work with the EPA to use the NIH Chemical Genomics Center's (NCGC) high-speed, automated screening robots to test compounds researchers suspect are toxic. The robots, created for the human genome project, could perform 10,000 cell screenings, using isolated molecular targets, each day.

NIH said the plan could generate data more relevant to humans; increase the number of chemicals tested; reduce time; and save money. Still, it could take years to validate the new testing methods.

"The experimental and computational expertise required to transform toxicology is an enormous undertaking and too great for any of our existing organizations to accomplish alone," National Toxicology Program Associate Director John R. Bucher said in a news announcement. "This collaborative approach allows us to draw on our individual strengths and establishes a long-term, multiple U.S. federal agency commitment."

NTP is expected to contribute thousands of compounds for testing and lend its animal toxicology expertise, as well as a large database of the chemicals' effects on animals. That will form a basis of comparison for the new cell-based data.

The EPA's involvement is part of its ToxCast program, launched last year use advances in computers, genomics, and cellular biology to improve efficiency of the agency's chemical toxicity evaluation procedures.

George M. Gray, Ph.D., assistant administrator for EPA's Office of Research and Development, urged other federal agencies and private sector companies to join the effort.

The memo of understanding provides a framework for long-range planning called for in a 2007 National Research Council report on modernizing toxicity testing. The report urges toxicologists to collaborate and rely less on animal studies and more on in-vitro tests on human cells and cellular components.

''After a quarter-century of being involved with robotics, I can see that the robotics industry is here to stay. And robotics does not stop here. Sojourner (was) the first, but certainly not the last, intelligent robot sent by humans to operate on another planet, Mars. Robotics, robots, and their peripheral equipment will respond well to the challenges of space construction, assembly, and communications; new applications in agriculture, agri-industries, and chemical industries; work in recycling, cleaning, and hazardous waste disposal to protect our environment and the quality of our air and water; safe, reliable and fast transportation relying on robotics in flight and on intelligent highways. Robotics prospered in the 1900s; it will thrive and proliferate in the twenty-first century.''

Industrial robots are somewhat underrated in today's society, but the world owes much to the productivity and quality measures imparted by robotics. Their effect on future generations may well be the assistance they provide in manufacturing faster computers, more intelligent vehicles and better consumer and health products.

evrything u said is just true and mere facts, but robots and other technology that aid efficient production level may result to unemployment and disregard of manpower. it can also promote laziness of us humans, i guess thats the downside of it

Although the appearance and capabilities of robots vary vastly, all robots share the features of a mechanical, movable structure under some form of autonomous control. The structure of a robot is usually mostly mechanical and can be called a kinematic chain (its functionality being akin to the skeleton of the human body). The chain is formed of links (its bones), actuators (its muscles) and joints which can allow one or more degrees of freedom. Most contemporary robots use open serial chains in which each link connects the one before to the one after it. These robots are called serial robots and often resemble the human arm. Some robots, such as the Stewart platform, use closed parallel kinematic chains. Other structures, such as those that mimic the mechanical structure of humans, various animals and insects, are comparatively rare. However, the development and use of such structures in robots is an active area of research (e.g. biomechanics). Robots used as manipulators have an end effector mounted on the last link. This end effector can be anything from a welding device to a mechanical hand used to manipulate the environment.

tlgang ng research ka ah.. hehe! well yeah, it's very true!

______________________________________________

the unfortunate thing here is that this causes unemployment to the poeple.. i am somewhat disfavor robotics in someways.. robotics shall be used in particular areas of the society ONLY and not at all times. it is not that very benificial to the society causing the society be overwhelmed with human resources.

correct...instead that the work of the real people is for them, it turned out that machines do their jobs!!!!

I respect ur ideas (both of u) if ur not that in favor with robotics... or the machnies... but we should accept the reality that to be able to meet a certain quota, companies must be engaged and use those machines... or else we'll be left behind... the productivity that the machines can do are the things which people can't...

___________________________________________________________

i do respect nd accept ur point of view as well, like what i've said hightech robots or machines should be used in particular areas or fields only nd not at times! peash!

easy guys! but come to think of it, who did all those robots and machine?! people right?! it wouldn't exist because of those people..but we still have to accept the fact that those technology built by people are may be into multi-tasking! haiii.. thats life

the creation of this technologies should be blamed to the people who had invented it. this event is really scary and it is very disaapointing that humans create these kind of destructive technologies for their self-interest.

I believe that when people have more time to think there is more room for new ideas as well. If technology will aid humans from this hectic lifestyle we are in, we can have time for more precious things in life.

Good idea!!because if we are aid by robots to help our daily life we can make our life more convenient and we can do some precious things that were not able to do because of house chores.We can have enough time for our family to hang outs because we have the robots to rely on to our work.Isn't wonderful right....

I also like the idea.. but what if there are those who abuse this opportunity? parang dadami ang magrerely nlang sa technology..(hehe, isa na ko dun..)

that would be one of the disadvantages of having robots, nice idea then.

maybe it would be my first time to agree with albert which i dont usually agree of what he always say.. to add with albert's comment, infact robots can destroy also our future.. i mean look for the american movies that they show robots, sometimes they're the one who takes incharge over humans. and by that, they can also be a threat.. dont only look for the bright side.. look also for the dark side. like look for albert. he always got the "dark" side.. hehe.. peace! bounce!

Like the life changing invention of cellphones and internet which made the communication tasks easier. But it technology and inventions also have disadvantages like the destruction of the natural resources, human's behavoir and values, which gave the film directors the idea to create movies that someday future human race will be living in a world of robotics, high-end technology equipments with a very scarce or no natural resources left, that water is much more precious than gold. Economic problems would increase like population growth, food scarcity, politics, fading natural resources and other problems that would lead to chaos, denial of religion, and war, before other natural disasters would affect the humanity. Human's dependence on fuel, electricity and other technologies that contributes in destroying the natural resources is a very difficult thing to avoid. We can even ask ourselves, "what if there is no TV? no electricity? or no cellphones?", others would even take a deep breath and say "how can I live without these things?". I also agree that people should be acting as early as possible in saving the world, but all I can do is agree which is easier to say than make an action.

good point you have... articles on advantages and disadvantages about technology may help.

some robots do not last long and some lacks the efficiency to produce that of a great quality and also because some robots malfunctions so it becomes a scrap metal hehehe...
