Robots

I have no clue why but I was thinking about robots and artificial intelligence today (I guess I was bored?). If humans had robots, what would we do with them? What would we use them for? You see what people do with technology today. It seems like people give up control of their lives to machines. Knowing how the world is, the first use of a technology would probably be something destructive.

That whole discussion on AI and robots fascinates me for a number of reasons but the main one is that the creating of those things seems like the creation of a new life. You are physically building it up piece by piece and then teaching it to interact with the world. It really seems like teaching a child.
