The QCVerse isn't in the future. It's now but with a different tech history.

I think the first two panels of this more likely.

Personally, I think that part of the reason that Momo fantasises about being with Sven is because she doesn't have the confidence who personality to make it a reality.

Mark7:

No they can't.

How so?  Physically there's no question, they can be placed in a body that's designed for any task.  Mentally, they would compute problems like a computer, efficiently and without distractions.  They never die, only getting more proficient as hardware and software improves.  Whatever you do, a robot could do it better.  It'd be like Neo from the Matrix..."I know Kung Fu!".  Instantly they are trained at whatever took you years to perfect.  

Have we discussed non-sentient robots yet?  People poo-poo the idea of enslaving sentient robots, which is arguable I admit.  However, in a world where we have sentient robots, that means the technology is there for non-sentient ones to do all my chores for me.  On the flip side, they would also be working for corporations, efficiently working with no complaints, no salary, no insurance, 24/7.
