  • Why are we talking about robots?

    Robots are special man-made machines that can do useful jobs for us.

    Some robots can be used by doctors to look after sick people. Some robots can travel to faraway planets and help us learn amazing new things about those places. Some robots can even build cars, planes and other things in factories.

    Robots are being used to do more and more different things and so it’s important for us to ask big questions about how we treat robots and whether there are any things they shouldn’t be used for.

    Talking about robots also gets us asking exciting questions about humans and what makes us special, and what amazing things robots could be used for in the future.

    We’ll be adding more big questions on this topic, so keep checking this page!
