What do you think about Kurzweil’s ideas?We agree with Ray Kurzweil's opinions that computers will be soon as intelligent as humans, and even quicker than humans in doing some tasks. To prevent the scenario that robots cause mass destruction to our world like we see in some science-fiction films, we human beings should equip ourselves with more knowledge of different fields-especially ones that involve a great deal of emotion. We should create A.I. robots that better our lives, but we should also find ways to prevent them from controlling us.
