In this paper, the author analyzes the historical background of robotics as an independent branch of scientific and technical knowledge and discusses the philosophical aspects of its presence in the life of a man. The author tries to show the ambiguity of the use of "mechanical people" by modern societies. The author made a number of assumptions about the futurological perspectives of the development of robotics. Both the negative side of humanizing the machine and its humane use in the form of android robots in medicine and emergency situations are considered.
The article examines the problem of ecology of a human, studies the correlation between self-knowledge and "self-concern" in the ancient culture, explores the existential phenomena of idleness and labor in the historical context. It also distinguishes various forms of "fatigue" in relation to the life of a modern human: physical, psychological, creative and patrimonial. The author gives an ambiguous assessment of the existential of laziness.
