As time goes on and technology advances, medicine has to advance with it. Modern medicine is looking to produce small nanobots that can be placed within the bloodstream to many things medicine cannot do outside of the body. Things such as remove bacteria and send oxygen to cells.
1. Do you think this is an acceptable thing for medicine to do? (Give details)
2. What are the pros and cons of nanobot in medicine?
3. What are some other things that the nanobots can do? (Give full detail examples)
1. If scientist are able to create a safe way to transfer the nanobots into the blood stream of patients, and it helps cure diseases and sickness, I don't see any issue with the technology. With no danger to the people that are implanted with nanobots, it seems fair to test the technology and it evolve it for the future.
2. Obviously, the main pro of using nanobots would to be help cure sickness for those that need it, without having to recover from complex and lengthy surgery. The cons of the technology would be the amateur phase, as some risks could come with the advancement of nanobots and their possibilities in the medical field.
3. Nanobots can help evolve man to create a so called "Human 2.0", by increasing the strength of one's lunges, possibly leading to swimming underwater without relying on oxygen tanks.
1. Yes I believe this is very acceptable as it will provide the solution to many problems modern medicine can not yet solve. Antibiotics are beginning to fail, which are very important for the most basic of operations as well as stopping the spread and effect of bacterial diseases.
2. Nanobots would have a variety of positive effects. They can replace antibiotics which are now beginning to fail, kill cancer cells, and any other bacteria or virus. It seems to be a cure for diseases caused by infections.
3. Nanobots could increases the strength of Human's lungs, giving us the ability to hold much larger amounts of air in our lungs and thus swim under water for extended periods of time.
1. Well, it depends on the limitations of the nanobots. If they're able to be hacked into by any passerby, then it could pose a serious problem, especially if they're going to be left in the body after they serve their purpose.
2. These nanobots can directly administer medicines that would otherwise take a long time to take effect, and could be tooled to potentially contain and kill belligerent cancer cells. However, the potential for even miniaturized technology like this to be hackable is a genuine concern.
3. Going on the hacking / making nanobots harmful idea, nanobots could be used to kill a target and then leave without a trace. In addition, they could be used to administer poisons or viruses; just a few of the potentially many deadly applications of nanobots.
1. I believe that I would benefit greatly by having little robots in my body. They are working for my benefit and constantly helping me, so I would love to have nanobots in me. Sounds like fun. 2. Nanobots will be able to fix problems from inside our own bodies, faster than blood cells could. It would cut down the need to go to the doctor because you just have a bunch of little robots doing it for you. 3. Nanobots can tackle ailments from the inside, like cancer, head on. They will be able to cure various viruses just like white blood cells would.
1. Nanobots, as well as various new treatments keep conflicting with the moral and ethical views of the people. As long as it is safe and effective for the patient, I think it is completely okay to try. If people are willing to accept this treatment style, they shouldn’t be denied of it. 2. Pros can include a POSSIBLE replacement for invasive surgery, and the ability to make internal changes on a very small level. The cons for nanobots are a common trend with any form of machine these days, human error. Manufacturing issues, a small mistake in code or even 3rd party intervention could ruin all benefits for nanobot treatment 3. Nanobots are being looked at for cancer treatments. Supposedly, they could be sent in to identify and kill cancerous cells in the body. Nanobots would also be able to transport medicine and other vaccines directly to specific sections of the body.
1.) I'm fine with it as long as it is in trusted hands and the doctors don't make me sign anything regarding the government being able to control my body if I do a crime or something. Medical wise I think it's suitable for people
2.) Pros:
- You'll be able to get cured of diseases and get a stronger body
Cons:
- You can be controlled by the Government
3.) The Nanobots can also raise the heart rate and make it stronger, making your body faster in what it does. You can be able to run faster, think clearer, and it just can be manually controlled.
1) Nanobots are a complected subject to talk about because what they can do is amazing. But the other side that if they target good cells or get taken over by an outsider it can be a horrible outcome on a world wide level. 2) Pros: you have a living work force in your body working for the betterment of your life and safety. Cons: The danger of it attacking wrong cells or going rouge. Also having a strong enough defense so that they cannot be taken over 3)Nanobots can clear bloodlines, attack harming cells, and even help move your circulatory system faster.

1. I would be fine with it because it could heal a lot of different things that would be wrong with the human body. With this things tech it could maybe stop clots in the veins and help clear some bad stuff. But for me I would be creeped out a but because a little robot will be in you. Like what if it breaks and destroys your veins and could maybe do some serious damage to you.. Like have you seen I, Robot? 2. The big thing we could do is cure many things with these things. It could save many elders from clots and cholesterol blockage. Although the cons in what if it breaks on you and deal damage to you that can not be repair because of the small cuts it will leave on you. 3. These little guys could help attack back from other cells and not do the damages that could naturally happen. It could also evolve us into deep technology with these things. #WeAreRobits
1. I think it is an acceptable thing to do, as long as it’s actually helping people and creates nearly no negative side effects. It seems like nanobots in medicine could be a very beneficial thing to fix problems inside of the human bodies that doctors could not normally do. Using nanobots could destroy certain parasites either too small for doctors to even locate, or possibly even act as blood cells to fight off bacteria or something.
2. The pros of nanobots is that they are cheap to create, and there would be no risk of putting them inside of your body. With new research teams working on nanobots, they were able to find out ways to create them without lots of expensive parts. Some of the cons would be the actual usefulness of the nanobots. Some people aren’t to sure it’d be more helpful than just having a surgeon going inside of you and operating.
3. Some of the things a nanobot could do is make a more speedy recovery after an operation or even track down and attack cancer cells. Doctors would be able to put nanobots inside of someone as easily as a tiny needle and control it using a screen to look around and find certain organs to operate on.

1. I believe it's acceptable. However, I don't like the idea of having these robots in my own bloodstream that I can't personally control, someone else controls them. And I'm willing to be that the person controlling the nanobots inside me could cause them to clog my veins and create blood clots and make it look natural. If I can control them myself, and there's no way others can control them (especially by hacking), then I'd be completely fine with it. 2. The pros are that they're an amazing piece of medical technology and can help people with sicknesses and disease immensely. The cons, however, is that I'm not the only one controlling what's in my bloodstream and instead others have access to it. 3. Nanobots would be able to raise your heart rate, which can be good but can be bad if you raise it too high and can die.

1.I would be fine with it, since it reduces the dangers of surgery and other drugs. Nanobots are much less dangerous and intrusive than a complete operation, and I would much rather have tiny robots in my bloodstream than a scalpel in my brain. Or anywhere else in my body, for that matter.
2. Of course, there is the pro that it can reduce the risk of treatments and reduce the need for worse surgeries. Even though this might be fantastic in the future, we must be careful, and know the full extent of what these nanobots can do, lest something goes wrong and these nanobots turn out to be more dangerous than a normal procedure.
3. Nanobots have a plethora of possible uses in the future. One such use is in spying- these tiny robots would be the ultimate, almost-undetectable weapon. Another is in the field of medicine, replacing surgeons in some instances, or perhaps assisting in the cure for cancer.

1. Developing nanobots is absolutely an acceptable thing for medicine to do because if they can be successfully mass produced. Nanobots could make medecine so much more convenient and efficient and would make an obscene amount of money. 2. Nanobot medicine would be a great way to fight cancer and other incurable diseases. It would be more efficient and there would be a great demand for them. The only cons would be for people fearing technology that they don’t understand. People would be creeped out by having robots in their blood that could potentially be hacked and cause terrible problems. Honestly, there are a lot more easy ways to cause those kinds of problems to people than to hack their nanobots. 3. The coolest thing about nanobots would be their ability to adapt. They would be able to recognize cancerous growths and take them out long before they became life threatening. They would be able to receive software updates to be able to fight the cold and the flu even when the virus evolves into something that our regular immune system doesn’t know how to fight.
1.I do not see why this is unacceptable. This could be the best way to stop every disease that plagues our world. There are some things we can stop but this will stop almost everything.
2.There are so many pros like curing disease and doing things that usually require surgery. The cons maybe is that they can put a tracker in you. The bots don't live that long though so it is fine.
3. They could give us a better understanding of the body and brain if kept there for a while. They could maybe clean water.
