  i oppose the 4th reason
  we cant make robot to much intelligent if we made so they start thinking this may leads to the end of total human life or humans are made as slaves to them
  in my view our technology makes destruction more than construction
  so,we can make them advanced but we cant give them ability to think

  Hey there,
  
  Hardware reason isn't convincing! Look we don't have problems in recharging the batteries of bots. Now consider ur cell phones, laptops, etc. don't u recharge their batteries? Do u find this reason enough to not being used in homes? i don't! 😉
  
  On the 2nd reason i'd like to say that, for a work, there may be lots of different ways of doing it...sometimes we can't say which is best, but we can only choose our own way of doing a work. eg-> when u fall down, u wanna get up! how will u do that? Someone will first push down with hands and then push down legs to the ground and get up! but robots, as far as i have seen, they curl their legs and use it to pull their rest of the body...as a human we don't follow it coz it's not the obvious way of getting up!
  
  3rd reason seems to me as a valid reason! Otherwise we need to create a huge database for them, for performing infinite number of work at home!
  
  And i feel 4th reason is the answer to ur 3rd reason...if u teach robots to immitate then u can use them in houses as well, not just industries... coz everyday u can show bots the new work they need to do, and they'll immitate us! thats how they'll learn...thats what we do to teach human servants 😛

  What makes u think robots will, given the power to think with artificial intelligence, inevitably think and wish for the destruction of humans? Coz i believe, if they can think, then they can conclude that humans have MADE them, so they'll be kind towards us...Coz they'll be qualified enough to think that without humans they wouldn't have existed, hence morally, they won't wish for our destruction, we'll be like their gods, they'll worship us or the worst case scenario is that they won't worship us, neverthelless they wont hurt us...this is what i feel

  @limestone: iam saying this considering the people at which level robots can be done they are still like machines
  they are good and bad people
  let us consider nuclear
  we can make ultimate level of electricity from it and there are many good things from it but we are mainly concentrating in war weapons like atom bombs
  like wise if they are at thinking level if we can leave any wrong program in it we cant imagine destruction
  another thing is as you thing they are good at it but if they think us as below level and there is a possibility of thinking as humans are using as servants why cant we make them as like us
  there is another possibility of star wars and robot wars
  
  this my main doubt if they can ensure as the above problems never happens i always accept new technology

  i HOPE they keep this in mind whenever they make bots !!! lol

  Before saying anything,I would like to know what you think is the concept of "Robots"?
  If you think it something like Kojiro or Asimo,Then its OK.
  Actually I think robots are nothing but simple machines which help humans (Correct me if I am wrong).
  So actually we are using Robots since long.
  For example Fan, Washing machine,AC etc...
  What says everyone?I am unable to distinguish robots from normal machines...😒😕

  @ishu: i think you are right but not completely there is so many differences between normal machine and robots

  Well then can anyone really differentiate between robots and machine?

  Ok Robot is a machine. In simple words we can say that all robots are machines but all machines are not robots. A textbook definition of a robot is "a software controllable mechanical device that uses sensors to gide one or more end-effectors through a programmed motions in a workspace in order to manipulate physical objects" as written in Fundamentals of Robotics by Robert j Schilling. And we all know they started with need for automation in production line and they are being used there.
  But now the question, Why the sparing use in the domestic scenario? Ok the first and the foremost reason which I believe is the price. It is too high for a normal household to buy a metal handyman. It looks good in sci-fi flicks, people ordering their bots around...but personally I would fear that future. It would mean we becoming even more lethargic.
  And the other thing is Intelligence. As the definition says, it works on a fixed path. Though with use of sensors we can make the robot respond to its surroundings but then as the number of sensors increase, so would the cost. So I think in the end it all narrows down to the cost.
  
  @Narayan: Anything can be used in a good way or a bad way. It depends on the person using it. Does that mean we should stop developing new technology? I think your point is rather weak.

  @raj: i never mean to say we should stop them but i always saying that the new technology and inventions should not disturb the peaceful living of humans i think you didnt noticed the point as i always accept the new technology but i specified as it dont disturb people life and it should be always eco-friendly because we almost distroyed every thing nature so iam so concentrated on nature development and not disturbing it
  i hope you understand what i mean
