Will Humans Fade Away?
With major advancements in technologies and infrastructure one is compelled to think that will there a time come when human beings will be of no use? Will human beings ever be needed to perform various tasks? Humans are vital beings for the stability and growth of the evolving environment yet with the development of artificial intelligence one wonders that maybe in few years’ time human beings will be mere spectators. Are human beings needed in the assembly line where cars are automatically assembled by preprogrammed robots? Are human beings needed when we need to withdraw money from the banks when there are Automated Teller Machines everywhere? When we observe such amazing advancements we fear that a day might come when computers will be programmed in such a way that they perform any task that a human being can. But one thing that computers lack is the intelligence and the ability to think that we humans have. It is because of our superior ability to think and reason that computers exist today. Following are certain points that clarify the importance of human beings.

Ability to Think
Human beings can reason, think and reach a conclusion while computers have to be instructed to initiate a task. Computers will always do what they have been instructed to and cannot take the initiative.

Computers follow Humans
All the computers are preprogrammed by human beings and do as instructed. If a human being thinks that the computer’s memory has to be altered according to a particular situation he can do so by changing the set of instructions and it will do so.

Humans can Destroy
If ever a computer is needed to be destroyed it can be easily by a human being. When the computers become outdated or old they can be replaced by a new computer by a human being.

Humans have certainly become dependent on computers but a computer can never take a humans place when it comes to think and reason after all computers itself is the invention of a human being.
