Universal Basic Robot is a reference to the concept that we can provide everyone a service robot that can perform all the actions necessary to ensure their housing, food and healthcare needs. This is a new idea - the prospect of creating such a versatile helperbot is not new however. Just the concept of giving everyone one instead of giving everyone a stipend.
Thanks for the definition, interesting idea. I hope people start to define how this can be accomplished. I've heard for a while now about basic income but I've yet to read how it can be implemented given our current social environment. I rather read more about how to make it a reality rather than it's good or bad. Like everything, it can be debated for ever but we won't really know it's benefits or shortcomings unless it's put into place. The basic income advocates have started with pilot projects which is good. It would be nice to at least start the discussion on how to implement it for basic robot.
