You would think Americans would be the ones to come up with this one, given the lazy slobs we are. I, personally, wouldn't want one of these since I like doing most of the stuff they are designed for. I would, however, like one of those bomb disposal robots to clean up after my dog.

well sometimes it would be nice to have one, but they could really help with old people and handicapped people and stuff... but on the other hand its just one more thing to go haywire and start do terrroristical things..

Very true. It is just one step below them taking over. I hope they remembered to invent the Three Laws before building the robot :P

The three laws were invented by a Sci-Fi writer (Isaac Asimov) with deliberate holes in them so he could write his book about them. If they're going to use A.I. restricting rules, they'd better invent some better ones than those...

Anywho, what happens if you put juice in a glass and milk in a glass next to it. Or put a coke bottle in the fridge with no label and ask them to get it ? How does the robot know what each item is ??

Could I say "Go get the Newspaper from next door" and have the robot steal my neighbours newspaper ??

You could, but In that case you and your neighbour will have to have your robots fight in a steel floored cage match with lots of strobey lights and flamethrowers. That is until they realise that they shouldn't fight each other and turn on you and use you for batteries.

You need a remote to change the channel? Because Picking a romote up and changing it is to difficult? Well... I guess for handicapped people it is fair... But if a non-handicapped person used one that would be sad...

I still think the worlds demise wont be caused by a robot (Maybe science experiment or something...)

The robots won't turn into terrorists or cyberfreaks. They run off batteries!

1: Robots always try taking over, no matter how they're powered.
2: Steel cage butler-bot deathmatches would be so cool.
3: The only people I know that could use one of these are my grandparents, and the poor robot would hang itself after just 10 min with my grandmother.
4: Robots are beings of science, and therefore, we scientists will have a hand in the planet's demise. Poses proudly and heroicly.

I, for one, welcome our new battery-powered robot butler overlords.

To be fair, the Laws of Robotics were generally effective...until people started illegally tweaking with them. The robots did seem to have some unusually wide definitions of harm, though. However, they'd still need to be rewritten if we were planning on using them.

But...cool!

Huh. I'm getting REALLY odd landmate vibes just looking at that thing.

No, seriously! Does anyone else who's read Appleseed think that it looks like a Guges? o.o

If the robot was: Bender, R2-D2, C-3PO, or a Cylon, I think we'd have more to fear than a butler-bot. Also, an android like Data would trump them all.
