False. A robot has to be programmed by humans. The robots used in a car manufacturing company can only do tasks in assembling cars by following the instructions given it by human computer programmers. Artificial Intelligence will eventually produce robots that can think and make decisions for themselves. One example is the development of driverless cars. But that is still in the future! There is development to build a robot that can walk, talk, climb up and down stairs. What does the future in robotics hold? I see a time when paralized people, who can't walk or move without a wheelchair, can sit in a robotic contraption and move, walk, up and down stairs, moving as though they were not paralized at all.
