y you. radical muslims on the march. hope you have a great weekend. see you back here on monday. >> robots that is stand >> robots that can stand in for humans are under development. >> they are fast intelligent and they will be every where. >> what does that mean? eternal life? >> will robots take over the workplace? >> robots are a lot easier to employ for how mothan a human b. they never show up late for work they never ask for a raise. >> the prototype of a car that completely drives itself. >> even more controversy are designer babies. >> opportunity to build a baby choosing eye color skin tone and more. >> come on. we have to be willing to say not everything i can do should i.
7:01 pm
>> should we? can we? that's our show tonight. >> robots and living machines are breaking out of the laboratories and stepping into our lives. >> what will the future look like? i struggle with the present. using digital video recorder to tape a tv program. gps in my car. i just got a cool new smart phone. i have no idea how to use most of the apps. but those of you who do understand things like that are changing the world and for the better. people like mit professor eric yoltson. here's a talk he gave about how technology makes people richer. >> worldwide incomes have grown at a faster rate in past decades than ever in history. in anything all of these numbers
7:02 pm
under state our progress. because the new machine age is more about knowledge creation than just physical pro dpuks. it's mind not matter, brain not brawn, ideas not things. that creates a problem for standard metrics, because we are getting more and more stuff for free. >> eric joins us now. what do you mean ideas create a problem for standard metrics? >> wikipedia has tremendous value for me and other people. it is available for free that means that it doesn't show up in their gdp statistics which measures value of goods and services bought and soeltd. >> one example you used is the robot ibm named watson. watson went on to jeopardy to compete with people and lost. but that was in 2011. the computer kept learning. >> these little dots here. those are all of the champions on the quiz show jeopardy. at first watson wasn't very good.
7:03 pm
but it improved at a rate faster than any human could. shortly after he showed this chart to my class at mit watson beat the world jeopardy champion. >> watson? >> what is priests. >> the right answer and he won a million dollars. i can bm gave it to charity. in the said talker rick covered what happened to watson next. >> recently the teachers let it surf the internet unsupervised. the next day it started answering questions with profanity. but you know, watson is growing up fast. it's being tested for jobs in call centers. it's getting them. it is applying for legal, banking and medical jobs and getting some of them. >> really? is legal jobs? is doctor jobs? >> absolutely. watson is reading all of the medical literature.
7:04 pm
if it is not the world's best diagnostician i wouldn't be surprised if in 20-years it was and we go to doctor watson. >> you have written we have the first industrial revolution expanding peopleally strength and power of our bodies. this is about expanding our brain. you say this one is bigger. >> we talk about the incredible increase in living standard brought about by the steam engine in the first industrial revolution. that was about physical power. now we are improving mental power, cognition, through cools like watson and big data and other tools. ultimately i don't see how that wouldn't be just as big if not bigger than the first industrial revolution. >> this is going to keep happening the computer per form man's doubles every 18 to 24 months. computers get faster and better. if you look at a sony play
7:05 pm
station that has more computer power than a military super computer recently as the 1990's. that's only one aspect of it. >> you said in the 1990's we forced sadam hussein out of kuwait. everybody said it was because of our amazing computer power, our missiles. we were way ahead. the play station now has more computing power than we had then. >> hundreds of millions of people have that. your smart phone is like a super cuter from a generation ago. all of these trends are combining to i think lead to a faster pace of innovation than we have ever seen. >> many say tech is flowing we are seeing a decline in innovation. the recent book called "the great stagnation" argues growth will continue to decline because we have already grabbed the low hanging fruit. >> nothing new or interesting or innovative any more. that's what motivated us to
7:06 pm
write the second age talking about stagnation we didn't see it at mit or silicon valley. innovation have not slowed down. you look at some of the stats of stagnating income the innovation has slowed down but if you look at specifically what's happening with technology i think it has never been faster and it's not necessarily being captured in some of the median income or gdp at that ti statistics. >> we haven't seen the invasion we were once promised like flying cars and trains and planes are not getting faster. >>er kas aren't getting faster but they are learning to drive themselves. it is virtually science fiction some of these changes. used to be what star trek when people would talk to their machines and expect them to talk back. now we take our smart phones a lot of us talk to them and expect them to understand what we are saying. they are not perfect. but in this short 10, 15 year
7:07 pm
period where machines don't understand us and routinely carry out our instructions. that's quite a milestone. >> thank you, eric. >> hollywood always imaged a world with robots. star wars made r2d2 and c3-po famous and they were kind and helpful. probably more often the robots turned deadly. >> we designed them to be trusted with our homes. >> robots cannot harm a human being. >> if robots teach themselves might they become a threat to us in real life? patrick tucker is editor at large of the magazine "the futurist." shoed we worry? >> robots can become much more dangerous. they become more dangerous as we ask them to do more and more things and we are not exactly
7:08 pm
sure what those things are. armed drones present a great opportunity to talk about that. we think of drones as things that fly over coforeign countri. they decrease the cost of military development. by the year 2017 they will be doing the work of police departments doing surveillance. are they capable of anti social behavior? are they capable of executing tasks that have a cost to human life and health. the answer is absolutely. >> i think of these things as operated people. >> drones right now are operated people, but one of the key interests of the military right now is incrementally increasing the level of autonomy in these systems. that is a huge cost saver for them. the more they can do on their own the less it costs to run them. we are incrementally making them
7:09 pm
more and more capable ie more and mora ton -- mora ton mouse. >> the computer watson is teaching itself. >> they have cableable of doing that. they learn faster than we can if they want. they work within very narrowly designed parameterparameters. >> we program them you must never harm a human being. >> it is the laws of robotics. that's what's going to protect us from anti social robots in the future. each one responds to the lab can't harm a human being you have to do what you are told, et cetera. unfortunately when we have already violated the first law in the way we design a lot of military systems. we want robots that are capable of carrying out complex military missions. so fine. does that mean they are going to pose a threat to the people that are operating them. not necessarily. it does mean this. as we ask them to do more and more things, as we design them
7:10 pm
to taken creasingly amounts of load off the backs of soldiers this is where anti social behavior comes in. if it you ask the robot to do or aa drone to do a number of complex tasks it is designed to do those perfectly fly over a certaintis dance, notice a certain target, fire missiles at the targets and then you give it a few more things to think about doing on top of that find the shortest range and avoid this place and this place and this place and you keep laying on top of that eventually you get to the point where you as a designer of those robots don't realize the way all of the rules conflict. the next thing you know you created a monster that is capable of performing what you told it to perform. you don't understand what you are asking asking it to do. some people suggest it is about time to start thinking about some sort of robotic morality that we can engineer into these
7:11 pm
systems. >> the military is talking about that. how do you teach a robot to be moral? >> for most of us morality is played out in decisions it is moment by moment, day by day, membership ut by minute. it has a calculation mind it is it good for the person i hold dear. as long as we can take some aspect of that decision making process represent it in numbers it is possible to create four robotic systems a sense of write a right and wrong. there are still puppets but they are increasingly complex and we are asking them to do more and more and that's where the real problem comes in. >> puppet is right. this is what i think of with robots and these little toys that don't do much, it is hard to image them taking over in any way since we designed them.
7:12 pm
we have one showing casino skills dealing black jack in japan. there are projects teaching p robots to take care of older people. >> japan is leading the way. >> what we are seeing now is a robotic sheep or seal. >> it's a seal. >> older people like playing with it. >> yes, yes. he does provide comfort and companionship to the japanese elderly. >> hard to belief a machine can comfort people. >> it can provide a level of tactile comfort. we want to touch. we want to interact with beings around us. a lot accompany people to the stores thouso they can pick up groceries picking people up when they fall down.
7:13 pm
this is a biggs area of research. to keep the conversation going use the hash tag the future. let people know what you think. coming up we showed you that robot black jack dealer. more on whether robots will actually replace us, take our jobs. will they take my job? i am john stossel. he retain more research ask better questions and i am more charismatic than stossel 1.0. don't go away. avo: waves don't care what age you are.

>> can robots takeover the workforce. >> the pro oh bought is easier to employ they are never late for work, they never ask for a raise. >> robots are going to take all of our jobs. it is just logical if robots can do it and they are never late to work and they never wine about not getting the raise. they will take our jobs. >> i will take your job. i am smarter than you. i never take a bathroom break. >> so the era of everybody
7:18 pm
working being self sufficient finding joy and purpose in work will soon be over ex cement for a few rich people who will build the robot. he says they must raise taxes on the rich and give money to everybody else. the author of singularity rising spoke about the future libertarian economist james miller says people like noah will want to fix this inequality should chill out. you wrote in the atlantic an arlen titled "the end of labor." robots will do everything we won't find other jobs? >> in the past we always have. but there's no guarantee the thees -- that's going to happen again. >> why would we assume it's not going to be the way it always has been we don't have phone operators as secretaries but people found until this last recession found other jobs.
7:19 pm
>> i hope that's that is what happens this time, too. the things used to be all over the place, horses. why are they now? >> horses don't adapt the way people do. >> is there a limit to how much people can adapt? i hope not. i hope there's not. but maybe there will be. >> most people don't like their jobs. we can still have everyone have a decent lifestyle whether you work or not it's optional. that's great. that's an economic utopia. >> i thought people get purpose in work. >> people do get purpose in work but you can get purpose in other places, too. a lot of people get purpose in playing video games and caring for their children. >> you support his idea give the to the poor money tax the rich more? >> i don't think we should impose too high a tax on the rich that will slow down us achieving in the future. the more we tax the rich the less money they will have to
7:20 pm
invest in robots and software. the longer people will have to work at crap jobs when they would rather spend time with their children. >> you say sup dies l subsidize them sit on the beach. >> people get completely automated away. there are the software engineering and robot lords. some people get automated away what do you do with those people pay them to sit on the beach? >> they find other things to do. in 18009, 90 percent of americans work on farms. now it's 1 percent. with he create new opportunities. medical research, personal training, i can't image what? you make another point prices go down. >> you don't need to, would. you can get facebook for free if your cell phone is almost for free. the price of food will likely to go down. we will have robots building houses and robots driving cars so it will be cheap to take a bus. you won't need to earn that much
7:21 pm
money. which is why we won't need to impose large taxes. >> even warren buffet who wants to impose large taxes on the rich in my opinion gets that wrong. even buffet says you are wrong to worry about jobs disappearing. an interviewer takes noah's side. >> what do you do in the day and age where i pads can replace certain jobs and they are. >> it is always good to replace jobs. >> it is good to replace jobs. >> if you want to free up people for other things. >> always good to replace jobs. she can't believe that. i look at the list. the people who made whips for the horse and carriage rajs the black smiths, phone operators, secretaries. so many jobs are gone and we had full employment now we have so much regulation people are afraid to start new enterprises and unp employment is higher. you have -- most people have jobs. >> the outside possibility is
7:22 pm
something we should be prepared for. if you don't prepare for the worse case scenario. >> how do you prepare? >> you think about what policies you are going to enact what you are going to do in that case. >> i think the difference in the fact is we will have machines that can think and do erg a person can do. that's when you got rid of one type of job in the the past there were still things people could do that machines couldn't. the analogy would be 100 years ago we bred super important horses that would never come back. we are close to doing that. >> what's the worst that will happen? >> the worst that happens is you have a few people who are the robot lords who own and control arms the robots and whether you want to raise taxes on the rich doesn't matter there's no way to get near money because governments will be completely useless and powerless. >> why? >> because you have got a rich guy with his little army of robots and his little force of
