I suppose the image of a robot would be like the ones you see in movies, usually some form of metallic mechanism.
Although the robots popular in movies were always given personalities, to make them appear more like a human.
In reality, robots in factories or production lines, for example, have very few characteristics which are similar to humans, and tend not to interact with humans.
My overall perception was that they were really awesome, and I can remember looking forward to the future when robots would do everything we don’t like doing.
And we would be able to do just the things we like doing.
Unfortunately, we still haven’t reached that point yet.
Did you like any films about robots when you were a child?
Oh, I was totally into movies with robots when I was a kid! One movie that really sticks in my mind is "The Iron Giant."
It wasn't just about a robot; it delved into stuff like friendship, sacrifice, and dealing with the unknown, which really hit home for me back then.
The bond between the robot and Hogarth was so touching and complex. It got me thinking about whether machines can have thoughts and feelings like humans.
That movie, blending sci-fi with deep emotions, really got me interested in robotics and AI, blurring the line between tech and humanity.
