news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/8044200.stmNow, I've got nothing against mechanical robots, but I make it no secret that I have a greater interest in biology and chemistry. Go figure that I would find this type of robot absolutely amazing. Also just another example of the ingenuity of science. Creativity is a wonderful thing.

But what if they start to evolve?

But what if they start to evolve? Wouldn't they need the ability to replicate first?

This is wonderful news for those of us who've dreamed of raising our own Shoggoths.

Chobots? Well, one step closer to my beloved Flobots.

Chobits? This sounds incredibly awesome I think. I'm also sure it opens up all sorts of possibilities for medical treatments.

Chobits? I guess that's one way to ensure they don't reproduce.

I wonder how long it will be until I can fill my bloodstream with these and have them work in tandem with mechanical nanites to maintain my glorious cyborg scorpion body that I will one day construct so that I might become a plague upon mankind?

I'll be really impressed when (if?) they can introduce mechanisms which allow them to evolve and reproduce.

I'll be less impress than I will be scared shitless. We have enough problems with microscopic organisms that evolve naturally.
