We
won’t need to drive our cars in the future … Computers will do it for us
The
world is advancing so quickly these days. Every single month there are new
mobile phones being released, new cars being designed.
We
cannot keep track of all the innovative developments in the world anymore.
Imagine
waking up in the morning not having to search for car keys, jumping into your
car and asking it to start the engine .Envisage that in the future, now imagine
it in your future. Even though this idea may be difficult to conceive this is where
humankind and the world is going.
Cars
will no longer need a steering wheel. The car will contain a “brain” of its own
and will make decisions by itself. But a
car will never have a soul or a spirit so it cannot replace our cognitive
thinking . Personally I believe that this may be the root of some problems . Do
we truly want to put all our trust
within a car not only that but
put other people’s lives at risks not just our own .
Is
this fast-tracked development a positive or a negative? In my opinion I feel
that it can be seen as both. On one side there are a lot of positives as it
improves our knowledge of technology, science, nature and transport. It makes
people contemplate what their purpose on the earth is and what they are going
to contribute to the world.
But
what would happen if we reversed all the progressions that we have made to
before the Industrial revolution. People would provide for all their basic
needs and have our priorities in line. We would supply for our essential necessities
within Maslow’s triangle.
This
is an ongoing debate and will continue for a very long time People will continue to be free thinkers and
be innovative and creative providing services that they feel people may need.
