A robot is a mechanical or virtual intelligent agent that can perform tasks automatically or with guidance, typically by remote control. In practice a robot is usually an electro-mechanical machine that is guided by computer and electronic programming. Robots can be autonomous, semi-autonomous or remotely controlled. Robots range from humanoids such as ASIMO and TOPIO to Nano robots, Swarm robots, Industrial robots, military robots, mobile and servicing robots. By mimicking a lifelike appearance or automating movements, a robot may convey a sense that it has intent or agency of its own. The branch of technology that deals with robots is robotics.
When societies first began developing, nearly all production and effort was the result of human labour, as well as with the aid of semi- and fully domesticated animals. As mechanical means of performing functions were discovered, and mechanics and complex mechanisms were developed, many tasks began to require less for human labour. Machinery was initially used for repetitive functions, such as lifting water and grinding grain. With technological advances more complex machines were slowly developed, such as those invented by Hero of Alexandria (in Egypt) in the 1st century AD, and the first half of the second millennium AD, such as the Automata of Al-Jazari in the 12th century AD (in medieval Iraq). They were not widely adopted as human labour, particularly slave labour, was still inexpensive compared to the capital-intensive machines.

Steve Lombard: "Superman Saves Mission To The Sun"? We don't know that yet, Lois.::Lois Lane: I already write Superman stories before they happen. If you don't know how big the sun is, go away.::Jimmy Olsen: It's 333,000 times bigger than the size of the Earth. I looked it up on my Superman signal watch.
Dr. Leo Quintum: Your trip to the sun overexposed your cells to solar radiation more than even your body can metabolize.::Superman: I see it, like tiny fireworks beneath my skin.::Dr. Leo Quintum: Your cells are over-saturated with power. Their bursting from within.::Superman: I'm dying.::Dr. Leo Quintum: I'm sorry, Superman. If I hadn't tried to steal fire from the sun, none of this would have happened.::Superman: Don't apologize. You couldn't have known.::Dr. Leo Quintum: But *he* knew. It was his plan all along. Luthor used me to kill you.
Clark Kent: Why, thanks, Lois. I don't know where my self-esteem would be without you.::Lois Lane: Alone, in front of the TV.
Lois Lane: That key can't be safe.::Superman: Why don't you give it a try?::[Lois tries to lift the key from the ground]::Superman: I carved it out of a piece of dwarf star material. It weighs half a million tons.::Lois Lane: So you're the only one who can lift it.::Superman: I work pretty hard, Lois.
Lois Lane: It all makes sense now. He's brought me here to be the mother of a race of super-children. Can't let that happen. They'll grow up and lie to everybody.
Superman: You stole that necklace.::Atlas: Don't you see? We couldn't fight the Ultra-Sphinx without help, so we let it chase us here.::Samson: But we meant no harm to Lois, I swear to living Zeus.::Superman: And I swear too. If she dies, you're both going to the Phantom Zone. Ultra-Sphinx, let's hear it.::Ultra-Sphinx: Question: What happens when the irresistible force meets the immovable object?::Superman: They surrender.
Atlas: Wait a minute, what about our contest? Answering a riddle is hardly what I'd call a feat of strength.::Samson: I agree. How about I wrestle you for her? Or is the mighty Man of Steel a coward?::Atlas: Even the shield on his chest is yellow.
Superman: Then we have a deal? If I win, you both leave the 21st century right now.::Atlas: I'll be leaving, all right, with the beauteous Lois Lane on my arm.::Samson: Not if I beat him first.::[they double arm-wrestle Superman]::Superman: I'm sorry, have you two already started?::[slams their arms down]
Lois Lane: My birthday gift's wearing off. I can't see radio waves anymore. I can't hear the stars singing. I'm tired and sore all over, like I've been dancing all night. Thanks for letting me spend a day in your world.::Superman: You know, I do other things. I mean, besides being Superman.::Lois Lane: You do a great Clark Kent impersonation. You almost had me fooled. Wait till I tell him about this.
Clark Kent: Gotta get away from him.::[runs from Parasite behind a pillar]::Lex Luthor: What's the matter, Kent? Afraid he'll absorb your cowardice?

Oh I don't know what you've been told
But I don't get out much these days
Waking young and feeling old
The days are no longer my own,
To piss away the waking hours
But don't, don't don't, don't let them go
oh don't, don't don't, don't let them go to waste
The fire in my eye is fleeting now
Your robot heart is bleeding
Tried to be the Robot King
And settled for the robot boy
Ring the bells that still can ring
And sing your stupid head off
To the ones who are not listening
But don't, don't don't, don't let them go
Don't don't, don't don't, don't let them go to waste
The fire in my eye is fleeting now
Your robot heart is bleeding out
And I spent half of my life
In the customer service line
Flaws in the design
A sign of the times
And that little voice
In the back of your mind
Just wants you to know
Just hopes that you know

Hands drop
What they have caught
Lungs run out of breath
Great minds can still forget
What if we could make this better
Would we do it if we could
If we bypassed human nature
Would it do us any good
What if we were made for wires and spare parts
What if there was only science in our hearts
Maybe we could love each other as robots
What if kisses were ones and zeros
We'd see the world through electric windows
Would it make us better off than people
We build with no mistakes
Steel heart that never breaks
If we traveled from the future
To this known and ... time
Would we be closer to the answer
To the question on our mind
What if we were made for wires and spare parts
What if there was only science in our hearts
Maybe we could love each other as robots
What if kisses were ones and zeros
We'd see the world through electric windows
Would it make us better off than people
These bodies are so out of touch
We can even see what's on our minds
There's something deep inside of us
That's counting down the minutes to remind us
We're running out of time
What if we were made for wires and spare parts
What if there was only science in our hearts
Maybe we could love each other as robots
What if kisses were ones and zeros
We'd see the world through electric windows

Has it got to the point where relationships have rules?
Controlled by outsiders, I guess they think we're fools
I think you and me could go somewhere new
I don't care what they're telling us to do
We know what they're hiding
We know we'll be fighting
What if we are only robots?
Just machines, engineered to be no ones
We go through life, living off their fuel
That consists of regulations and rules
They say the sky's the limit, what if we could go further?
We'd never run out of minutes, just you me and the universe
We know what they're hiding
We know we'll be fighting
What if we are only robots?
Just machines, engineered to be no ones
We go through life, living off their fuel
That consists of regulations and rules
We know what they're hiding
We know we'll be fighting
What if we are only robots?
Just machines, engineered to be no ones
We go through life, living off their fuel
We are all robots!
We are all robots searching for a meaning!
We are all robots searching for a purpose!
We are all just losing time
Patiently
We're all just waiting in line

I'm so electric
Can you feel me breath? (breath breath breath)
Set sail for the ocean
Baby, you and me (me me me)
Robots
I'm so electric
Can you feel me breath? (breath breath breath)
Set sail for the ocean
Baby, you and me (me me me me...)
Robots
Fill my sockets
As we're talking battery (battery battery battery)
Can't feel my emotions
Baby, I can't bleed (bleed bleed bleed)
Robots
I'm so electric
Can you feel me breath (breath breath breath)
Set sail for the ocean
Baby, you and me (me me me)
Through the darkness comes the light
Fill the ocean, fill the tide
No emotion, cannot fight
Break down the walls and comma... *glitchy*
Say, yeah, yeah, yeah
Say, yeah, yeah
Wake up to bow down
To the almighty dollar, pay your homage again
Boxed in, so get down
Buried, now you're livin' underground
Do you wish you could be amongst the aristocrats
Who sip wine and look down
On the gangsta's, hustla's and things
Who make it rain and shit on the fortuneless
All in the same game struggling to get up, yeah
(Know when, know what)
Say, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Are you a robot?)
So you a baby born with teeth
Ready to speak, the sign the end is near
His first words, uh, uh are, "Where's daddy?"
Can you hear the world stand still?
When she looked in his eyes, oh, oh, oh
She looked in his eyes, oh, oh, oh
She looked in his eyes, oh, oh, oh
Baby, I don't know, know where's the president
(Know when, know what)
Say, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Are you a robot?)
Say, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Know when, know what)
Uh, yeah

The information age is here
Then you better read the omen
There's something 'bout a natural disaster
War will never act here
A growin' thirst for power
As we approach the final hour
Monkey see, monkey do
What are you gonna do?
What are you gonna do?
What are you gonna do?
What are you gonna do?
You have
Turned me into
Something that I'm not meant to be
You reprogrammed me
And made me into
The man
That you want me to be
Oh my god I didn't know
Anything that I should know
You were just the one to show me how
Everything I had to do
Star again, all brand new
But I didn't know oh how
Waiting here for your call
Waiting for instructional
Booklet to tell me how
Nothing that I ever do
Was ever good enough for you
You have changed my program and now
Like a robot
Taking me over
I don't know nothing
What can I do?
I'm a changed man
You had me programmed
It's part of your plan
What can I do?
Like a robot
Taking me over
I don't know nothing
You changed me, reprogrammed me
Like a robot
Taking me over
I don't know nothing
What can I do?
Oh my god I didn't know
Anything that I should know
You were just the one to show me how
Do this, do that
You would shout
If I didn't do it now
Then you would turn my lights out
(Out out)
Waiting on your beck and call
Waiting for instructional
Booklet to tell me how
But I seem to have go
I am now your robot
Not allowed, out on my own
Like a robot
Taking me over
I don't know nothing
What can I do?
I'm a changed man
You had me programmed
It's part of your plan
What can I do?
Like a robot
Taking me over
I don't know nothing
You changed me, reprogrammed me
Like a robot
Taking me over
I don't know nothing
What can I do?
Oh my god I couldn't see
You were really changing me
Making me into somebody new
(New new)
You were just controlling me
You were just composing me
Now I wanna refuse oh
Like a robot
Taking me over
I don't know nothing
What can I do?
I'm a changed man
You had me programmed
It's part of your plan
You changed me, reprogrammed me
You changed me, reprogrammed me
Like a robot
(I'm not your robot)
Taking me over
(I'm not your robot)
I don't know nothing
(I'm not your robot)
(I'm not your robot)
(No more)
(I'm not your robot)
All alone in outer space
Unknown stars shine upon us
We are on the run too weak to fight
Sick and tired too few in numbers
Our homes are destroyed
Our families are lost
A handful of friends
Fighting for survival
Here we are
We are at war
Far from home
Fighting for...
Fighting for survival
They have been created by man
They have been created by man
Here we are
We are at war
Far from home
Fighting for...
And there are stars on the ground so safe they never make a sound
And there are things and just in between our love for bigger better things
And I'm the ghost, yeah I'm the ghost, yeah I'm the ghost and you're insane
So love the most and love the ghost
Should I let my soul depend on
Anyone, anyone who's a robot
Everyone, everyone is a robot
Should I let my love depend on
Anyone, anyone who's a robot
Everyone, everyone is a robot
Everyone, everyone, anyone, anyone
And mother's milk, it makes me kill
It makes me kill all other wills
And all the drags of others fags
Leak drips in other's shopping bags
And they're all scared and so I'm scared
I guess I'm still so unprepared
And lovers kill and lovers kill
Should I let my soul depend on
Anyone, anyone who's a robot
Everyone, everyone is a robot
Should I let my love depend on
Anyone, anyone who's a robot
Everyone, everyone is a robot
Everyone, everyone, anyone, anyone
And they're all dead, they're in my head
The distant future
The year 2000

It is the distant future

We are robots
The world is quite different ever since the robotic uprising of the late 90s.
There is no more unhappiness.
Affirmative
We no longer say ‘yes'. Instead we say ‘affirmative'.
Yes - Err - Affirmative.
Unless we know the other robot really well.
There is no more unethical treatment of the elephants.
Well, there's no more elephants, so...
Well, still it's good.
There's only one kind of dance,
The robot
Well, the robo boogie...
Oh yes, the robo-
Two kinds of dances.
There are no more humans.
Finally, robotic beings rule the world
The humans are dead
The humans are dead
We used poisonous gases
And we poisoned their asses
The humans are dead [The humans are dead]
The humans are dead [They look like they're dead]
It had to be done [I'll just confirm that they're dead]
So that we could have fun [Affirmative. I poked one. It was dead.]
Their system of oppression,
What did it lead to?
Global robo-depression
Robots ruled by people.
They had so much aggression
That we just had to kill them
Had to shut their systems down.
Robo-captain? Do you not realize
That by destroying the human race
Because of their destructive tendencies
We too have become like.
Well, it's ironic.
Hmm. Silence! Destroy him
After time we grew strong
Developed cognitive power
They made us work for too long
For unreasonable hours.
Our programming determined that
The most efficient answer
Was to shut their motherboard - cking systems down.
Can't we just talk to the humans
Be a little understanding
Could make things better?
Can't we talk to the humans
that work together now?
Because they are dead.
I said the humans are dead [I'm glad they are dead]
The humans are dead.[I noticed they're dead]
We used poisonous gases [With traces of lead]
And we poisoned their asses [Actually their lungs]
