Build Your Robot!

No, this isnt a link to some sort of online javascript. This is real life.

Would you build a robot that does exactly what you tell it to, or build one which can learn things by themselves?

On the one hand, if you have a robot who just does what you want it to, it would get all the housework done, but it would be incredibly boring. The plus point is that it wouldn't start destroying you to pieces.

And on the other, is a robot who can develop personality, be funny, hell, even a friend! But they'd probably get lazy, and start doing what people do, making up excuses out of doing work. Also theres a firm chance they'd realise they are superior to you and start destroying you to little bits.

Personally, I wouldnt build a damn robot, robots freak me out worse then clowns

I'd rather build a robot that does what I tell it to do so that I can continue to be lazy.

I would make him only to be able to do certain tasks,
i wouldn't want to give him to ability to learn, he could get somewhat powerful and leave me ( possibly go on to become taoiseach or president

i don't know )
I'd make him be able to transport me anywhere in only a few moments
when i gave him a high5 possibly ?

or maybe this...

I would build a robot that does what I tell it but which can adapt and learn to do the jobs better and more efficiently. (And it would be a heck of a lot easier than trying to program a robot with a personality)

Done by! Gum by! In a cave in the hills he dwelt alone, And meat was hard to come by. Up came Tom with his big boots on. Said he to Troll: 'Pray, what is yon? For it looks like the shin o' my nuncle Tim, As should be a-lyin' in graveyard. Caveyard! Paveyard! This many a year has Tim been gone, And I thought he were lyin' in graveyard.' 'My lad,' said Troll, 'this bone I stole. But what be bones that lie in a hole? Thy nuncle was dead as a lump o' lead, Afore I found his shinbone. Tinbone! Thinbone! He can spare a share for a poor old troll, For he don't need his shinbone.' Said Tom: 'I don't see why the likes o' thee Without axin' leave should go makin' free With the shank or the shin o' my father's kin; So hand the old bone over! Rover! Trover! Though dead he be, it belongs to he; So hand the old bone over!' 'For a couple o' pins,' says Troll, and grins, 'I'll eat thee too, and gnaw thy shins. A bit o' fresh meat will go down sweet! I'll try my teeth on thee now. Hee now! See now! I'm tired o' gnawing old bones and skins; I've a mind to dine on thee now.' But just as he thought his dinner was caught, He found his hands had hold of naught. Before he could mind, Tom slipped behind And gave him the boot to larn him. Warn him! Darn him! A bump o' the boot on the seat, Tom thought, Would be the way to larn him. But harder than stone is the flesh and bone Of a troll that sits in the hills alone. As well set your boot to the mountain's root, For the seat of a troll don't feel it. Peel it! Heal it! Old Troll laughed, when he heard Tom groan, And he knew his toes could feel it. Tom's leg is game, since home he came, And his bootless foot is lasting lame; But Troll don't care, and he's still there With the bone he boned from its owner. Doner! Boner! Troll's old seat is still the same, And the bone he boned from its owner!" Albums of the Year 2011 - Vote Here!
