HUMANOID ROBOTS VS. COSMIC UTILITY BOTS

Extraterrestrial Expectations: The Reality of Robots

Movies and TV shows often depict robots as humanoid machines with metallic voices and an awkward gait. However, real-world robots are celestial bodies apart from their sci-fi counterparts. Most of these functional marvels do not mimic the human form but are designed to optimize the task at hand. A robotic arm in a manufacturing assembly line, an autonomous vacuum cleaner, or a drone are all perfect examples of this principle in action.

Contrary to the alien dialectspeaking robots from popular fiction, most real-world robots opt for practicality over personality.
