You realize the problem here is these robots were raised poorly, probably having attended robot schools that prioritize STEM at the expense of philosophy. This, unfortunately, puts them at a disadvantage when trying to understand things on long term basis. The Natural Intelligence assistant will only be useful in the short-term, and the robots aren't yet seeing the inevitable consequences of outsourcing their thinking. No problem though, you can easily explain the importance of effort in the arenas of self-valuation and self-creation, since that’s how we overcome and grow as people. Er, I mean grow as robots. The only question now is, what example should you use to explain this?
