Roomba

Tom bought a Roomba.

Tom has a Roomba.

Consider the Roomba, a programmable robotic vacuum which cleans floors on its own.

I wanna be a roomba. I want knives taped to me. I wanna be let loose.

I want to be a roomba. I want knives taped to me. I want to be let loose.

Watch out for the Roomba.

The Roomba whirled around the room.

But a roomba is really an independent actor and we already see problems with it (roomba companies collecting apartment layout data, pets feeling strong competition, people feeling rather helpless if a roomba doesn't clean some place or gets itself constantly stuck on rugs etc). Sure they are not big problems, but roombas aren't really big independent actors either.

That's so cute... I feel like roomba companies should start implementing cute AIs in the robots that bark or so cute stuff, their sales would skyrocket

I have an offbrand roomba too, you don't need to actually have the roomba brand in this case; the off brands work just as well sometimes better

i used to have an actual roomba - okay no, not a roomba brand roomba but one of those things. and now im just imagining making it and still using it as my regular floor cleaning robot
