"Are we interested in a new Undead Thread about robots?"

Won't take much to convince me.

From "Cage":

A tentacle extended itself out of the side of the unit, and slithered its way toward the sleeping man’s crotch. Tawney moved the bedclothes aside, and watched in fascination as the device tracked and identified the orifice it was seeking. With what appeared to be a combination of suction and a continuing eversion of the tip of the tubule, it entered the opening and penetrated deep into the interior of the man’s body.

From "Evelynish":

The first part would be the robot individual component, essentially a shrunken hive insect executed in metal and silicon. These things would be tiny, and able to link together like living chains, or to assemble into rods or sheets of material, perhaps even closely enough to contain liquids, or form long strands of high strength steel wire, even binding into cables!

But because each had the ability to change its own shape minutely, the whole assortment of them would be able to move, to pull on the cable, or wrap around an object, and to grow or re-grow the physical structure of a part that had been damaged.

.

I'm ready.

You’re not just “ready”: you’ve been-there-done-that.
