Where are all the robots?

Genuine AI is banned and illegal. You can still salvage AI fragments, but they are illegal. Probably a lot of robots, lore-wise. Things like loading cargo, repairing ships, outfitting ships, etc.

Most robots today look kinda like this:

Not sure what you were expecting.

I was hoping for something like this :)

I believe AI is illegal.

Where they went is one of the game's mysteries.

AI's are not robots.

AI = Artificial intelligence with full consciousness and ability to choose
Robot: Programmed machine for a specific or several tasks limited in choices due to programming
 
The secret Salome was going to expose - telepresence doesn't exist, those robots... ARE US!

*conspiracy noises*

And where are the Space Traffic Controllers? Why do the control towers have windows? Why are the lights on in the control rooms?

I must have seen this poster a thousand times when docking all across the Bubble, and yet it only just struck me, where are all the robots? Now, I know about Jaques Station already, but if I'm not mistaken, even Jaques is more of a cyborg than a robot, reconstructed during some long forgotten war and now more machine than human. But the advert in the screenshot above seems to imply full-blown robotic creatures, perhaps with artificial intelligence. I'm genuinely intrigued by this...

Good point!
 
I was expecting that tele presence ment operating an Archilles at a distance like how skimmers are according to lore operated by someone remotely (which is why it is weird to encounter skimmers far out at wrecked etc.). Guess the Archilles would make for bad screenshots.
