I don't care for robots if we're not there to experience the universe. They're just a byproduct, a piece of trash we'll leave after we're gone. I want us to explore, not our toasters.
- gumby 4y agoWhat a speciesist view! You won’t have any experiences outside the solar system, or likely off planet at all. You will not know any of the people who do. So what difference should it make if they are meat, metal, or some combination? Would it be OK if the robots brought a dog along?
- mrleinad 4y agoRobots don't experience anything. They're not alive. Everything they do is something we code into them. The rest of our fellow animal companions on this earth are thousand times better than any robot. If I'm forced to choose one of them, I wouldn't choose a dog, I'd go for one of the apes, octopus, crow, or maybe even a dolphin. But I'm fairly sure if they're given the option they'll rather stay here.
