For those looking for the robot maid scene, it's in episode 5, around 9 minutes in.

Any Operators in this series? They are my favorite part of GITS.

Any Operators in this series? They are my favorite part of GITS.

The closest thing to the classic Section 9 operators is Aramaki's chauffeur, shown only briefly in episodes 4 (7:40) and 5 (about 2:00). This one doesn't do much here, though...

Here are some other 'bots I've seen. I've watched up to episode 10 so far.

Receptionists (same as the prominently-featured maids only in different clothes) with some fairly robotic motion: Episode 3 (12:00)
About a dozen maids deactivated/standing-by: Episode 5 (7:00)
Inn waitresses with limited AI, reacting with mild concern after seeing a prominent figure's head explode with a single punch: Episode 9 (14:30)

EDIT: Missed one, I'm not sure how I missed this on first viewing... there are a few sex worker androids who start frozen in poses, then activate when someone approaches (Episode 1, 17:45).

Just as a reminder, there are 12 episodes in the first season. They announced a second season coming at a later date, though.

In yesterday's Netflix Festival Japan, it was announced that Season 2 will premiere worldwide sometime in 2022.
