N4: Google Glasses- the Beginning of Evil Robots?


Do you know how in movies with an evil robot, it sometimes shows how things look through the vision of the robot, and everything is red and there’s gauges and information boxes everywhere and there’s little targets going around and then when it sees the person it wants to kill all the little targets go around the guy’s face and the targets start blinking and the word “exterminate” beeps across the robot’s vision?

Google Glasses.

In my opinion, Google Glasses are the start of something bad.  Think about it: if everybody’s walking around wearing the internet on their faces, we’ll cease talking to each other, then interacting with each other, and before you know it you’ll look at your best friend and a bunch of little targets will focus on his face.  And do you know what you’re going to do?

Exterminate.

I mean, what’s next?  A brain chip?  A Google Suit?  Technology is getting too advanced, and one day it’s going to backfire on us.  I keep picturing Google becoming an actual physical thing, like a huge robot or a computer with a face on it that has the power to control minds.   What do we do then?  Google how to defeat the Google Robot?  If you do that, it’ll be all like, “no result found,” and “did you mean- how to make my Google Suit self-destruct?”

Now, that said, I think it be pretty cool to have a pair.  Think about all the stuff you could do: record video, take pictures, video chat, walk in front of a speeding truck while looking up “funny things to post on Facebook” on Google… the possibilities are endless. 

There’s also eye cancer to consider, but I think if everyone gets a pair of Google Glasses, one bulging eye will just become an accepted part of society.
