Yes, I know this is a site for "I,Robot" but I just kinda thought the presentation was interesting and it got me thinking: If a robot like this existed, assuming it wouldn't get smart and kill us all, would I want one? Well, thats a no brainer for me so I decided to pose it to you. Would you want one? What would you want it to do? Not do? Look like? Discuss.



ps
   Here's an interesting link about personal robots for anyone interested.

Sure...I'd just carry my 12 gauge whenever it came near me. Can't trust a robot. About the whole female thing too...go get a girl man, that's sick.

Wow.....interesting.....I wonder if people would be so distrusting without the movies we've seen....


ps
    BTW, everyone should check out the part on that site where you can customize your own robot. Also check out the "commercial" by clicking "watch" in the top right corner, pretty cool stuff.
