As I continue with this program, I am really beginning to see all the possibilities that the future holds. Sometimes it seems like the human race really is not moving forward because it is difficult to the see the 
accomplishments that occur. This morning’s lecture, however, really made me realize all that is in store for humans. The slide show showed things such as outrageous cars and products that real companies are producing. A lot of the things that are in development are straight from a sci-fi film and it is difficult to believe that they could be a reality. Seeing all of this made me extremely excited for the future and what it has in store.
The thought of the future also poses very distressing problems however. Several movies about the future, such as iRobot and The Day After Tomorrow, show the future as being a grim place. These movies usually show how the development of the human race gets out of hand and therefore causes catastrophe. For example, in iRobot, robots were popularly used and they greatly improved the world- making things much easier to do. These robots, however, became to intelligent and tried to take over the world. The Day After Tomorrow dealt with global warming.
I believe that these movies should not be a warning that robots should not be popular or that we can not continue to develop; they are more of a reminder that with an ever-changing world, we must ourselves be ever-changing. We must regulate things and study the consequences of ever action we take. By doing this, we can embrace changes that will be beneficial to our lives and continue to live a good life and take care of the future of the next generation.
