At a time when the technology is advancing at a fast pace, a survey was carried out to know peoples' view on robots. The survey commissioned for Almost Human starting on the UKTV channel has received different responses from 2,000 British people.

To start with one of the exciting responses of the poll, it was found more than one in six did not mind having sex with robot. They find robots to be unusually sexy. But the lot that is scared of robots can also not be ignored.

Twice as many as those who won't mind getting cozy with robot fear that the same machines would take up their jobs in the coming time.

"While many of us worry about the role of technology and machines in modern society, robots are increasingly being developed for important roles that will help protect and improve our lives", said Prof. Martin Smith from at the University of Middlesex.

Many think that in the coming time, robots would be used as assistant. With the help of robots, the future workforce would be having the benefit of avoiding hazardous and repetitive tasks, but would also be at risk to suffer mass redundancies.

More than 25% believe that in future, robots would be able to feel human emotions. As many as 46% think technology is advancing quite rapidly and is undermining traditional way of living. In fact, 42% think that in future, teachers would be replaced by robots in classrooms.

Android policemen in new TV series Almost Human will be shown; it is a reality that robots are now being customized to be used in tasks that put human lives at risk.
