cyber technology  cam be good for those who lost member, arms, legs, eyes, ears.

a cyber brain would be bad since someone could hacked into it and do a lot of problem,

afraid of a robot that would kill all human is still too far from happening, what would be interesting is kinda robot dog, or robot pet.

not that expensive toy but something more real, something that can learn and react to its environment like a real dog would be good but like all technology there always be someone to abuse it and use it for destruction like a weapons.

we can't stop progress because someone will use it for a weapons.

I'll be honest, I am not afraid of these toys as they are now - still simple. Still basic.

A little OT:
What DOES scare me is that researchers have been experimenting with creating cyborgs - a combination of real parts and machine parts. Example: cyborg insects but this takes the cake: rat brain robot , computer controlled rat, Monkey brain controll

The result of some of this research: Mind Controll video games?
Real Life Bionic Woman - she can controll a prosthetic limb with her brain. Bionic eye
somehow I have the feeling that this will turn into a real-life terminator Lookaround

However I think that most of this stuff will turn into something positive since I think that even though robotic pets won't replace real pets, it might lead to something better. like a new mode of transport.
