With no gates and walls , everyone can enjoy a city with bigger green areas for picnics and more cafes and bookstores to meet your friends . Another good change blocks may bring is better traffic in cities , according to Professor Li Hongchang from Beijing Jiaotong University . There will be more roads open to the public . And more people may choose to walk rather than drive cars because they don’t need to take a long way to get around those gated communities .

Who is smarter ? A human being or artificial intelligence（AI，人工智能）? The whole world talked about this question when a Google-developed program called AlphaGo beat the world top player , Lee Sedol from South Korea . Computers beat humans in checkers（中国象棋）and chess . Go（围棋）, a game first developed in China , is much more complex（复杂的）than those two .
Some people are worried that AI will be a bad thing for humans . UK scientist Stephen Hawking warned that the “ development of full artificial intelligence could mean the end of the humans ” . Is that true ?
In fact , now robots are coming into people’s lives these days . Robots help people a lot . Japanese housekeeping robots can move chairs , sweep the floor , take away dirty dishes and put dirty clothes in washing machines . Intel , the famous computer maker , has invented a self-controlled robot called Herb. Herb can do simple things that people tell it to do , such as cleaning up waste .
Recently a large robot named “ Probo ” has been helping children to feel less worried in hospital . Probo , which was invented by Ivan Hermans , president of the Anty Foundation , has a touch screen on its stomach . The screen teaches children how to use Probo . The green robot’s face can make expressions to show how medical operations（手术）will make the child feel . “ The main aim of the project is to make emotional（情感）communication with children . ” said Jelle Saldien , one of the researchers .
We have a long way to go before AI can truly be similar to the human brain , so there is now need to be afraid of it now . Our fate（命运）is in our own hands ! What we have to do now is to make good use of the technology to improve the world .
