Robots are made to be part of the Sci-Fi world by showing how humans are “supposed to be” by showing an almost perfect society. A society where there is no crime, a society where everything gets done as it should.

In most movies or books, robots are either good or bad. The robots portrayed in these stories can do all of these tasks that normal humans would most likely be unable to complete like they do. A few examples would be cooking a meal in seconds, going onto a new planet to fight off space creatures, flying though space, and just doing peoples everyday jobs all in routine. Moving away from the stories and transitioning into real world things though, robots and their abilities are being used in the real world for things like factories, going into places that are too dangerous for humans (a place where there may be a bomb or another planet), and even in the medical field with surgeries and rehabilitation. The good in robots involves them completing numerous tasks in an efficient way, this way human error could be decreased.

On the other hand though, robots are also deemed to be scary over a stereotypical saying which is “robots are going to take over the world!” Basically stating that these “prefect example of humans” will soon turn on us and take over the world. Why is that though? In many science fiction stories this example of robots has been made true numerous times (along with the good side of them of course) and that being done brings uncertainty to the real world on them.

The anxiety exhibited by humans on robots to me seems to be started with a fear of technology. People in society may be afraid of how far these creations can go, can they get more human like? what if they develop personalities? Since this technology is rather new, there are a bunch of what ifs involved around it.
