robot liberation!

I love the Brits:

Robots could one day demand the same citizen's rights as humans, according to a study by the British government.

If granted, countries would be obliged to provide social benefits including housing and even "robo-healthcare", the report says.


It may sound outlandish until you realize that reality is actually science fiction and that now is the future.

Some people have too much money and free time if this is the best thing they can write papers about. Robots will never actually have the "desire" to take legal or political action.
