Yeah give me rich people getting into **ROBOT FIGHTS!**™
Or like let me rent it to do heavy housework for the day or something…
Doesn’t have to be Robot Fights™ I guess…
Comment on This future of piloted personal robots is perfect for lazy racists

What I think is most stupid about these bots is that they aren’t even trying to sell them as remote piloted surrogates.
I don’t want a maid bot. It’d be pretty cool to control the robot myself from VR tho.

Washing the dishes. VR edition. While you’re playing the game, the maid bot does the household chores. Just try not to drop anything valuable in VR, because the bot might break something IRL.

I’d use it to skateboard without hurting my actual body 😃

There was a stud sci-fi movie where surrogate robot bodies were used for everything. Only very few people actually lived their lives using their real body. Was a pretty cool concept.

Aye. The film is Surrogates.
