Given the feelings outlined above, doubtlessly I would only have it because it would have effectively been foisted on me, the way I can not delete Siri from my phone or computer or stop her from coming to life randomly, which would make me even more hostile to it.I am sure there will be more robots in my lifetime, but I'm equally sure that consumer robots that don't suck will remain fictional.</blockquote>
