I think he meant it can fall onto his toddler, causing injury.

Could we not simply encase the weaker unit some kind of armored robotic shell?

Then we would need better baby-gates. But that might lead to escalating scenarios.

Tragedy of the commons toddler armor. Can you guys fucking not? It’s best to death. I’d rather have a Ford vs Chevy vs Ram conversation again.

Might as well put an AI chip in the toddler's exosuit and get another bot

That's not a robot problem, that's a toddler problem.

We don't leave our young toddlers to roam freely around the house for a reason. Our homes are full of hazards to these risk-seeking small people and a robot is just one more on the list.

So, staple the toddler onto the kitchen counter, so that the humanoid cooking robot can get free run of the house, got it

[hanspeter]

Well, if that is how you manage other hazards in the home, then yes.

I would recommend another approach though. We decided for making changes to our home to allow our toddler to be safe in our home environment without being notably constrained.
