HUMANS VERSUS ROBOTS

Can robots ever be like humans in the future? Can they have
human-like appearance and intelligence? Can they perform tasks on
their own? Humans created these creatures just to help us in our
daily tasks in our society. However, humans seem to have rejected
the idea of having an omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent
God. They believe they can create their own creature similar to
Gods. Nowadays, people tend to get lazy because they want things
to be done fast and accurately. In the future, problems might be
larger and harder to solve as the days pass by because people do
not want to troubleshoot. This paper aims to compare and contrast
humans and robots.

In this paper, every OPINION from someone else has been

acknowledged in a parenthetical citation. I realize that the mere
presence of a parenthetical citation does not avoid plagiarism.
If I have used the exact words, phrases, clauses, or sentences of
someone else, I have enclosed the paraphrased portions in
quotation marks; but I have stated those opinions in my own
words. I have also introduced the paraphrase and have used a
parenthetical citation to acknowledge the source.
ALL FACTUAL INFORMATION (common knowledge or uncontested
knowledge), though not credited with a parenthetical citation,
has been stated in my sentence structure. I have not used anyone
elses organization of the factual information.
