And You Thought Sam Waterson Was Kidding…

Maybe robot insurance isn’t just silly joke fodder.
According to this recent MSN tech article, an estimated 39 million households could include robots by the end of the decade.
CNET also has a great FAQ article about robots. Check it out to learn what robots are doing now, and what they could be doing in the future. It also wouldn’t hurt to learn the difference between a robot and an android. Just for future reference.
With all the new robot technology, I figure there’s got to be some insurer out there calculating the risk of a robot gone haywire. I’ve seen all three Terminator movies. I’m aware of the possibilities.

While I certainly never thought I would discuss something like robot insurance it does seem like it would be important. Does anybody else find it creepy that this seems more and more plausible all the time?
