Robot tropes you're getting tired of

[zerodin]

Here's another trope I'm sick of:
The fembot becomes self-aware enough to go all angry/jealous kill-bot, and eventually murder, or try to murder, her creator.
It's been done to death. Name every "What a twist!" sci-fi series. It has an episode to that effect, sometimes more than one.
Its also a favorite among indie film makers for whatever reason.

These last few months, I've been getting increasingly bored of catastrophic malfunctions in fembots stories. The kind where the robot is only good for the scrap afterward. Evil boo's latest story kinda haunts me as it basically boils down to torture porn. I'm fine with it existing and in its genre, it's pretty good, but I'd like to see stories where the focus isn't the destruction of the fembots.

I miss robotman's stuff. It was just the right mix of sex, love and mindlessness. I could do without all the faceoffs though.

So what do you think is overused and what would you like to see more of?

Yeah, I get bothered with stories involving any type of (female) sexbots and/or "artificial companions" malfunctioning, getting out of control and going on murderous rampages. To me, it's mostly (Hollywood) propaganda that continuously serves to cultivate Humanity's hatred, fear and/or misunderstanding of ∆I and autonomous technology in general - not just our kinks for T∆MO (technophilia.androidophilia.mechanophilia.objectophilia) and ∆SFR. It's either that negative media publicity or sociopolitically activist groups such as CASR telling the World that our kink promotes idolatry ( ), formication and adultery; objectifies both women and children and further puts them in danger(?). Not to worry though; a year (or two) from now, my upcoming ADULTS ONLY stories will portray sexbot-Human relationships in a much better light ... as in artificial companionship without all of the drama ... the way it was originally meant to be in the first place.
