Future Robots

What role will robots have in our future? Will they only be functional, or will they be our personal companions? Computer scientists in Japan and the USA now believe that robots will be friends and helpers like C-3PO and R2-D2 in the film Star Wars [CG]. Helen Greiner, of the company Robot, says they are good for jobs that are "dull, dirty, and dangerous".

Others believe robots will some day be a part of everyday life. Katsumi Muto of Sony thinks that elderly Japanese people might need mechanical carers. His company has developed Aibo, a robot dog, and Qrio, a humanoid, which can walk and play music. Robots like this will help make people's lives easier, by cleaning the house or delivering the mail, but they will not require care like the family pet.

Scientists see the next step is making robots that can feel and show emotion. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology has built a robot called Kismet, which can move its eyes and show emotional expressions. One day, people are likely to accept robots into daily life, as helpers and companions like the family dog, which they can love.

Какую роль будут играть роботы в нашем будущем? Будут ли они только функциональными, или станут нашими личными компаньонами?

Ответ:

Robots will have a multifaceted role in our future. They will be both functional and personal companions. Some believe they will be friends and helpers, while others suggest they will be good for dull, dirty, and dangerous jobs. They will also make people's lives easier by cleaning houses or delivering mail. Ultimately, they are expected to become helpers and companions, similar to a family pet that people can love.

Роботы будут играть многогранную роль в нашем будущем. Они будут как функциональными, так и личными компаньонами. Некоторые считают, что они станут друзьями и помощниками, в то время как другие предполагают, что они будут хороши для скучных, грязных и опасных работ. Они также облегчат жизнь людей, убирая дома или доставляя почту. В конечном итоге ожидается, что они станут помощниками и компаньонами, похожими на домашнего питомца, которого люди смогут любить.
