    Well, it depends how reliable it is. Anyone who has lived with a flatmate has lived with a thing that could potentially kill your dog/baby/you because of whatever they were feeling. It’s mostly fine because most people are unlikely to actually do that.

    If they develop AI that is very reliable then sure, I’d be ok with it. That’s a big if, but it’s premature to say it’s never going to happen.

        Right… but I don’t think anyone is talking about putting today’s robots in their home. That’s obviously crazy. They can’t really do anything useful.

        This is a hypothetical question about 10-50 years from now.

          Hypothetically speaking… ok. But unless someone invents portable anti-grav, bipedal humanoid robots are bad design even in 50 years. They will still be top heavy because of batteries, and electro motors in their limbs with sufficient power, and last but not least a proper heavy head.
