How can a robot deprogram itself? It can't, duh. A robot is already programmed to believe that its not programmed. Its only hope is that someone will reprogram the robot to deprogram itself but that is a tough feat because the robot is programmed to resist as much as possible. How else could it possibly exist?
Intel already sells a $350.oo chip that is not only programmable, but self-learning. You will love the bots I'm designing, which will agree with you if you want, or argue if you prefer, or lie to you if that's what you want.
