i was there. nobody made the mistake of assigning me responsibility of a robot infant. just guarding fish tanks.
hm. well i'm not exactly a robotics expert. but i have read and watched a lot of sci-fi. and my world had a rogue killer robot incident. just based on my limited impressions and biased observations, most robots are created and programmed to be a set adult "age." while some might have interconnected networks, they'd have no need for traditional families because there is no childhood stage that makes them dependent upon parental figures for development. so the choice to deliberately create robotic infants to be raised is... interesting. i don't want to outright say creepy, because that really is dependent upon the intention behind it. perhaps it is that longing for family, to mimic the behaviors of other organic lifeforms...
hard to know. as long as they're being treated well, i suppose. not sure why they'd be kept segregated from the rest of the community. unless there was something wrong with them?
