Robots do help us so much during our daily lives. They guide us by giving us whatever information wanted. They are quite practical and can be used in any condition provided. The main reasons why robots are used this commonly is because they do understand what we mean and try to provide us things that we’ve asked for without showing a single emotion or a perspective that only includes one side’s circumstances. What they do is to provide us things we’ve required with an objective perspective and no emotions or personal opinions included. They are just programmed to serve us in the most objective way possible. However,would things be different if robots had real emotions or the ability to be aware of themselves? Definitely!
If robots had emotions and the ability to be aware of themselves, they would be the same as humans. I don’t think there would be any differences compared to us except for the ability to calculate super fast or have the knowledge of literally everything. They would kind of replace us humans and even be our opponents and get ahead of us. They wouldn’t be used the way they are used today. Some wouldn’t even be “used”. This usage of theirs would probably disappear after some time. As their objectivity would be gone,they would lose most of their functions. Nowadays, there are multiple fields where at some point robots are needed as they don’t show any sign of emotions so they can be used to indicate an objective aspect of a case or a fight etc. Other than that,they would have the opportunity to be an opponent race against us as they do have that possibility even now. With emotions and the self-awareness,they would maybe think they were better,cleverer than humans therefore feel like they deserve more than they get or maybe even more that what we have. I believe that robots could also be covetous with no emotions needed. They are clever enough to question things like why us humans are superior than them or act so. If they had emotions,they would get violent with their aggressive or sneaky thoughts just like humans. This could even be normalized.
To summarize,if robots had feelings,in my opinion,robots would be the same as human-beings and even be our opponent race that could harm us and be violent as well as getting ahead of us in many fields.
