I think this is way too optimistic. I suspect these things will be only available to the already-quite-wealthy. While the poor (i.e., not billionaires) are left to rot and starve without jobs, property, or livelihoods. Then, when the poors (i.e. us) become too much of a headache, these things will be deployed to murder the poors (i.e. me). I am imagining a world somewhere between the movie Elysium and Oblivion. |

You know, at that point, we've got nothing better to do than fight some robots. Kinda reminds me of that scene in Blade Runner 2049 where a band of scavengers shoot down K's fancy flying car with some type of harpoon, there are dozens of poor folk and just 1 of him.
(Of course at the end the "rich" send a bunch of ballistic missiles down onto the scavengers, most likely killing all of them.)
