I don’t think robots will replace humans, because we have creativity and emotions.
Yes, robots might do jobs like making things in factories or sending packages, but not jobs that need people’s special skills and care, like being an artist or a doctor.
1. Do you think robots will replace humans one day Why do you think so
2.What do you think are the most important qualities that people in the future should develop
Being adaptable and open to change, learning lots of different skills
We should also always be prepared for the future.
3.What do you think we should do to prepare for the future
I think we should study new technology so we can understand and use it to help us.
We should learn some new skills and we shouldn’t let technology make us useless!
Changes are unavoidable. What we need to do now is to seize the opportunity and get well prepared to welcome tomorrow.
