Manlike machines have fascinated humans since ancient times. The modern robots start to take shape with the industrial revolution. In the 20th century robots were mostly industrial machines you would see in factories, like car factories. Today, robots can have sensors, vision, they can hear and understand. They can connect to the cloud for more information. However, we are still in the early stages of robotics and robots will need to go a long way to become useful as a ubiquitous general purpose devices.

beings except where such orders would conflict
with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as

Unmanned airplanes have strong connection to warfare
In 1959, the U.S. Air Force, concerned about losing pilots over
hostile territory, began planning for the use of unmanned aircraft
The War of Attrition (1967-1970) saw the introduction of UAVs with
reconnaissance cameras into combat in the Middle East
In the 1973 Yom Kippur War Israel used drones as decoys to spur
opposing forces into wasting expensive anti-aircraft missiles

41. Jobs are lost but new jobs are
always created

42. WHAT ABOUT JOBS TODAY?

43. 70% OF JOBS WILL DISAPPEAR

44. According to these calculations, current trends could
lead to a net employment impact of more than 5.1 million
jobs lost to disruptive labour market changes over the
period 2015–2020, with a total loss of 7.1 million jobs—
two thirds of which are concentrated in the Office and
Administrative job family—and a total gain of 2 million jobs,
in several smaller job families
