For all the amount of artificial intelligence that a robotic vacuum cleaner is supposed to have, here is a case where it actually experienced a fatal miscalculation. Apparently, a cleaning robot was reported to have switched itself on before making its way over to a hot plate. Needless to say, when it was on the hot plate, the entire robot started to melt like a T-1000 at the end of the Terminator 2 movie. Obviously, it resulted in a fire that started licking at the owner's home, all the while being engulfed by flames. I suppose that this might be the first case of a robot suicide, if you will.
