Monkeys, Nanobots and You.

I think bots should be able to be remote controlled, either by the AI or from a certain console (gives esp. the roboticist something to do and actually gives them an incentive to create bots) if installed with an AI interface board.

If you combine this with your idea, you could have your brain just smushed in there instead of the AI interface board (bonus points for another crazy thing roboticists can do to you), which can be removed and rehumanised as necessary.

I think humanised bots should be subject to either the AI's laws (which can be messed with the same way as cyborgs, e.g. emagged to wipe laws, law sync wire cut), or subject to a static set of laws (either the default set or a custom set that's made just for bots to deal with any edge cases involving bots).

You'd also need to think about the bot's interface. You could use a dumbed down version of the AI shell's interface, with tools available according to the things that bot can do (stun baton/cuffs for securitons, injector and synthesiser/beaker toggle for medbots, fire extinguisher for firebots, lay floor/pick up floor tile for floorbots, clean floor as cleanbot, etc.).
I absolutely love every idea you just put down there.

Also i think static laws pertaining to each individual bot would be the better idea here, and emagging them should rewrite the laws to encourage be similar to what the standard emagged bots do, with some room to be creative about it too.
