Well, they were infatuations. We realised nothing like that there is. On the other hand, we see in reality the creation and presence of robots in our world. The interesting part is how this technology keeps evolving that today you can have a robot that looks almost human. Science and technology are really pushing towards that advancement. We will see what the future holds.
But then...
Wait for a moment, you just realised that you're a robot, although all humans are robots and your body parts are joined with screw's not with joints, your body is a robotic machine but it's all hidden in ways that no human can find it but suddenly you got this secret today and it's revealed to you today.
Let's say the above as proposed by the prompt becomes a reality. Say, I discovered I am a robot, what would I do? It's a tough one and something that won't settle with me anytime soon. After living with the initiative of a human only to discover it is not totally so. That would feel like a betrayal to me.
I don't know about the emotions part, but if they are available, I would certainly not be myself for some time. Not drowning in some emotions but trying to reconcile the harsh reality. Look at it this way, after embracing humanity and feeling like one, then I eventually see that I am not one. Surely, it would touch something in me.
However, what choice do I have but to be real with life? After such a time of solitude, I would eventually come out of my shell. Something that would seem disturbing is how much my friends and the acquaintances I have made will take this news. Since I still looked exactly like a human, it is something I can hide, right? But I think at some point I would need to let someone know. My close ones especially, not the whole world.
Surely, this would affect my life and how I could go about living. There could be some level of withdrawal. Some places I go freely could call for caution henceforth. One thing about realising one's identity is that it could cause them to put themselves in a place where they don't see themselves belonging where they used to.
After some time, I guess I will get over it and approach life as normally as I used to, to the best of my ability. To avoid creating suspicion. Beyond trying to fit in, I would do well to make efforts in finding out what or who made me this way. And then the possibility of finding others like me. If there is one, there could be others. If I do find, we will form a community of like minds.
Lastly, I would do well to find out my abilities. For something like this, you can agree with me that there could be some hidden potentials that would benefit me and the world. Or maybe it is just some of the things I have seen in movies driving this idea.
Thank you for reading through!
