2. Major question
Using robots as caregivers
damage relationships within
the family

3. Claims
The robots can only do things that
people ask them to do, and they even
have no feelings.
It is really hard for a robot to help
people’s relationship within the family
as a caregiver.
There are still some mechanical
problems with those robots, such as
repair and the safety.

4. Three supporting points
• 1.“not real” / relationships with people and
robots
• 2.Mechanical problems / repair / safety
• 3.Negative influence on the relationship
between the people and their family.

5. In order to support the first idea
• 1. “They are not “real”. They are merely
machines.”(David Bruemmer ,201)
• 2. “It will be hard enough to monitor the
software and mechanical’ natural of
humanoids.” (David Bruemmer ,202)
• 3. “Robot intelligence is the emergent effect of
layered, low-level mappings from sensing to
action”. (Isaac Asimov,202)

6. Supporting points for second
point
• 1.“It has been reported that children do
possess a sense of moral responsibility to
Aibo (a robotic dog made by Sony), but
this could easily be because kids
recognized that Aibo was an expensive
and fragile toy, while a stuffed animal is
clearly more durable” (Ada Brunstein,206)

7. The last point
• 1.“Human relationships are a lot of trouble,
forged from dirty diapers, lost tempers and
late nights.”(David Bruemmer ,202)
• 2.“Computers and humans are good at
fundamentally different things.”(David
Bruemmer ,202)
