Robots and the Uncanny Valley

The concept of the Uncanny Valley has made people uneasy since the 1970's and after taking a look at it, I can totally understand why. Firstly, I think one main reason is because people do not take the time to understand the evolution of robots. We encounter many robots in different forms, as it is, but when we think of robots, most people think of robots as they are in the movie I-Robot. Siri and other smart phone features are robots and with our generation we do not think of it like that because it is hand-held and we control it. With technological advancement of things like Siri, we should expect to have more human-like robots. But do the human-like robots pose a threat to what humanizes us? A couple things that I believe that makes humans human is our ability to reason and to feel. Humans can reason between what is right and what is wrong, but a robot can't. A human can commit a crime and can understand why what he did was wrong and fix it, but if a robot commits a crime, they will not be able to understand why they messed up and will not be able to fix it. So, our punishment for the robot will be to terminate it and not to punish it, like we would a human. A human will be able to learn from his or her punishments because they may begin to feel bad about about what they did. Robots do not have feelings therefore, they will not be able to learn from their actions. If robots started to run our world, as they run the hotel in Japan, it could start to detach humans from work ethics. As humans do less work, certain human skills, like problem solving, will start to demolish. Humans will begin to get lazy and expect the robots to do all the work. What will happen when a robot is not programmed for a certain job and humans have lost their work ethic? The job won't be able to get done and what if that one job is a life altering job, like a doctor or a cop. Will the world start to fall apart? Will the robots begin to take over our world? Will we become the new pets to the robots we created? So, I guess the real question is, are humans creating something to put above themselves?
