I wonder what it'll do to human reproduction rates when we have those.

There will be a day when a robot crushes it's digit in a machine and learns that we gave it the ability to feel pain.

Solution: wrap all machines in skin, and several eyes, and ears, so it can sense if it's about to injure someone. And at least one mouth do that it can communicate a warning.

Would it be able to replace people skin too? I’m starting to saggy and spotty.
