Robot Visions

I think that Asimov's collection of robot stories are very interesting and intriguing. They leave you wondering what the future could really hold for us and how large of a role technology really could play in our lives. The idea of making robots so sophisticated and highly functioning that they are indistinguishable from human beings scares me a little. I feel that robots and machines could be very helpful but I feel that no matter how advanced they may become, they are still a machine and should be under complete control of human beings. The thought of Andrew gaining freedom and given human rights is crazy to me. Robots do not have feelings and emotions or complex thought processes.
