Not to mention the many human jobs threatened to be lost due to robotics, as that's already been happening now. And IMHO I don't think filtering in robotic humanoids into our society will be a good idea, not until there's a global fall of worldy currency that places us into a totally new and hopefully better bartering system. One that completely eliminates the power mongors backed by the dough, calling the shots. Only then will robotics be an important factor for all societies in this world.
But I don't ever see that happening. The hardest thing to kill is greed.
Free of human flaws? No tears or laughter, no sadness or happiness? I mean natural tendencies, not program.
Can you imagine what would it be like?
Anyone?
It will be awful. The future of Humanity will be armies of robots and a core of highly allergic and severely depressed nerds. The rest of us will live in the sewers, more monster than man.

Yeah. Just wipe out the human race and let the animals have the planet.
Artificial intelligence is now getting better, and it's only a matter of time before robots are able to actually think for themselves, and react to those ideas. Then, they may recognise that humans are the cancer of the planet, and wipe us out.

That's the future without the state.
The future with the state will not have the masses living in the sewers, but instead hooked up to pleasure tubes and living off a ration. With state support we will be more moron than man.
