Write an argumentative paper on Topic: Technology and Nature. Use the short story Ray Bradburys There Will
Question:
Write an argumentative paper on Topic: Technology and Nature. Use the short story Ray Bradbury’s “There Will Come Soft Rains.” and the image Robot and Human Shaking Hands.
Address the following in your paper:
Do the different texts suggest that technology and human nature are compatible or incompatible? How do the different texts show this compatibility or incompatibility? Why are they compatible or incompatible?
What do the different texts suggest is the outcome of technology coming into contact with human nature? Do they seem to show possibility or danger? What do the experts, like Kurzweil (and others), say?
When “technology” and “human nature” come into contact with each other, is there a blend (or merger) of two, separate things, where each still retains something of the original, or is there something completely new being created? Is something lost or gained? Whichever way you view this, what might this mean for the definition of “technology” and of “human nature”?
What are the issues raised in the various texts regarding “technology and human nature”? What do the various texts seem to suggest about where we are headed as a species? What are we supposed to think about this trajectory?
Where are the boundaries between technology and human nature, or are there any? What might contribute to the boundaries (or not), and under what conditions do the various authors see this as a positive step forward? Negative?
