cyborgs.., a "what if" scenario.. Options

[DivA]

this came to mind from seeing the trailer for the upcoming - i,Robot ~ it got me thinking...if a time ever came where our world advanced far enough along to have actual cyborgs participating in various duties of daily life, then how would you react to that? would you treat them fairly to best of your ability, or would you look upon them as nothing more than servants - firmly convinced that they are best used to "serve" humanity? would you be comfortable in dealing with them?

but more importantly ~ is it wise to even consider introducing such an element into civilization at all? though knowing that our standard of living may improve, an unpredictable price will surely ask to be paid.. =.

~thoughts?

Well, considering all the damn sci-fi movies out there, one would think there would be many lessons that could be learnt from them.

The first mistake would be to make cyborg servants with the intelligence of humans(True AI). Would you like it if your microwave talked back to you for not cleaning it out, then became vindictive and overheated your food? I think not!!!

So, I would guess that any sort of cyborg would have advanced AI that is only in relation to doing the activities that it is programmed for, as apposed to creating a human like AI that mimics humans in every way, shape, and form. Taking these "humanoids" and using them as servants would be unwise, especially considering the abusive nature of people toward not only others, but also themselves.

So, in response to my feelings on all this:

Me:Robot, MAKE ME A SANDWICH!!!!

Cyborg:Yes, master. You look mighty comfy, sitting there, doing nothing at all...wasting your time and my time....

Me:What are you doing Robot? Why are you going into the living room; I said to make me a sandwich? No, ROBOT, put the gaming system DOWN!!!! For the Love of all that is sweet and bountiful, what are you doing to my Nintendo Game-Octagon 3!!!!

ROBOT....NOOOOOOOO, why couldn't it of been the N-Gage 6 instead....
