Hello
everyone. Today I'd like to mention the topic of a robot race that are involved
in a war and my presentation will be based on the article listed below my
video.
First of
all, the speaker talks about IED attacks that are thought to be killing the
largest part of american soldiers in IRAQ.
IED bombs need to be defused by special teams called EOD. They risk
their life even more than ordinary soldiers cuz insurgents pay a huge amount of
money for their head.
However,
they started using robots who replaced them in these dangerous tasks. Speaker
talks about one of them that failed during its mission but at least he had
saved team's life many times before being destroyed.
American
military is creating more and more robots that help soldiers during a fight.
Number of robots has changed dramatically since the begging of the
conflict.
Additionaly we have to remember that there are also other countries that take part in military race. We need to worry cuz nowadays everyone can create his own dron or other things due to its open-source. It would be a disaster if plans of these weapons found its way among terrorists.

Lastly we
need to think if it's going to change our world like an atomic bomb did. We have to be careful of using and developing
them so as not to destroy our planet.
To sum up
I'd like to say that robots have changed our world irreversible. Wars are
guided in a completely new way as they used to be.
CHORE - duty, being responsible for something boring
1) I was involved in chore when I was taking painting course.

2) We managed to defuse the bomb and save Tomek's life.
DEFRAY - to cover costs
1) Government defrayed our trip to London.
2) We didn't need to defray it since it had been payed in advance by our company.
INSURGENT - a person who has different political view and fight against government
1) Afghanistan is full of insurgents who fight for freedom and religion.
2) Insurgents created IED and placed it near the road.
OPEN-SOURCE - source available for everybody
1) Open-source software let me change it as I wish.
2) I didn't need to buy an expensive tool since it is open-source
MANNING - cast
1) The manning in our company is said to be unfair
