...And Bodies

While reading Slavoj Zizek's chapter seven entitled "And bodies," I thought it was a little farfetched. As I read I would roll my eyes at the crazy thoguht of techonology advances he was thinking our bodies could make. As I kept reading I realized I was infact wrong. As he describes how far we have come with prosthetic body parts, implants to numerous parts of our bodies, pace makers for hearts, and other technological phenomenons our bodies have gone through, I started to buy in to this article.
The part that I thought was the most bizare was one of the last paragraphs called "The God Spot." I thought it was weird how he said machines would do the same as we do; go to virtual houses of worship and prayer. This was a little weird becuase I just picture a machine like in the movie I-Robot. I feel like they could not think for themselves. I also think it is crazy how these computers or machines will be smarter than the humans who made them. We are the ones who put all the work in to thinking of these ideas, but the computers are the ones who are more intelligent than us. To actually deep think that really blows my mind. As a side note, if you have never seen the movie "I-Robot" or the movie "The Island" I suggest you see them both because they fit in perfectly with this article. Robots made from humans who develop their own thoughts and feelings, things robots and machines aren't supposed to have.
The article I found connects the movie "I-Robot" to real life. It tells how our own technological future can be our own demise. By creating these machines to control our world, we might indeed lose control over them someday.
