well according to the statistics, the most common activities carried out by futuristic robots that they will bake you in a pie, taste it and then sell it on for profit you must be careful when interacting with these little buggers they might just well bite your face off just because you look nice (no homeless people)
in the future robots will be able to drive cars, cook, take care of babies, protect houses, and do every day tasks for humans.
stuff....
Dangerous ones
They are programmed.
Robots may replace humans in space exploration as a means to gather resource for future bases or to be used to build those base and robots are replacing humans in space right now, the mars rovers are robots.
Robots are important because robots perform tasks that would be dangerous and even sometimes impossible for humans to do.
I think in modern society that robots are becoming more probable as an alternative source of labour for certain jobs. The three D's (dangerous, dirty, and difficult/dull) tasks are the ones most likely to be replaced by robotic labour.
Smart robots are robots that operate under programed control and are able to learn as they perform their tasks. They are used in scientific exploration and deactivating bombs.On the other hand, dumb robots are non-adaptive robots that are used to perform repetitive tasks and learn nothing during the process. These robots are valued for their efficiency for performing industrial jobs that are repetitive or dangerous.
Robots in our future can either be a good or a bad thing. You may have already seen the future in Robots in the auto and medical industry. Currently there is one car factory in Germany that is totally automated by Robots and one IBM technology factory in Texas 100% automated. One company, Caterpillar, is working on robotic machinery and plans on 2020-2021 for complete automation of their heavy machinery. The largest industry where you will see robots in our future before others is the medical industry. The Da Vinci surgery robot is an indication of the possibilities of robots working in hospitals. Robots are precise and performing risky surgeries can alleviate human error and stress associated with surgery. Increasing health care costs and the needs of the elderly and sick put a strain on our current network of doctors. Having robots perform the day-to-day and repetitive surgeries can free up doctors and surgeons for the harder operations. Also, medical scientists are affected: they would be able to concentrate of creating vaccines and cures.
Robots can pick up certain objects, deliver things, and sometimes are used for hel or security.
Some robots are made to do insufferable tasks.
